    So I call an uber, slid under some jacks, get some cinder blocks under there and then start stripping. zzzttt zzzttt zzzttt. load up my van. On my way.

    Next step, Uber tasers and flame throwers.

    Does someone have to sit in the drivers seat for it to work. Does there have to be someone capable of driving in the vehicle to take over when it does the wrong thing. Who is going to be at fault if it hits someone else's car or kills someone?

    Then there is refuelling, how where who?

    Anytime I'm in doubt I go outside and give it a little shake.
