alcohol detection system for your ride

The Hoff decided to have a few drinks before the auto show...

The Rise of the Self-shutting down cars.

We all know friends don't let friends drive drunk, but that can be extended by your car too.

((TOKYO - Toyota Motor Corp. is developing a fail-safe system for cars that detects drunken drivers and automatically shuts the vehicle down if sensors pick up signs of excessive alcohol consumption, a news report said Wednesday. ))

I have a Toyota, and it was just announced that Toyota is now the number three car maker in the US.

((Cars fitted with the detection system will not start if sweat sensors in the driving wheel detect high levels of alcohol in the driver's bloodstream, according to a report carried by the mass-circulation daily, Asahi Shimbun.))

That's so cool, will it also come equipped with a computer named Kitt as well?
