    A latch is like two bolts and 20 minutes. A sensor is about 4 hours of trying to figure out why the fuck it isn’t working just to figure out that you need to also replace the fuses and a relay thats for some reason behind the console.

    I’m at a lost for words over how extremist you’re being at the moment. The frunk isn’t going to fly off, it may fly up and shatter the windshield, but it won’t fly off. I’m not even entirely sure it would fly up with it being entirely stainless steel.

    And even if it does, it would probably be the least dangerous thing on the road. If you want to be extremist, every car should have a breathalyzer, eye sensors to make sure you’re not on your phone or falling asleep, and you should have to renew your license with a driven test every other year.

    In fact, cars shoudnt even exist. At any point, someone could drive into a crowd and there’s no limitors to prevent that.

    Imagine if you’re handy yourself, and you decide to either strap it down or make a latch of some sort, and it’s fixed in place. Or even just replace the latch, but it’s the sensor that’s faulty. But you can’t drive it anymore. Instead you have to take it to the dealership and pay out the wazoo to get it fixed.

    Yes safety standards are important. People are dumb and would ignore a warning. However, you should be able to disable the speed limiter.

    Edit: also you’re acting like you’re refusing my point, but that’s not what I’m saying. You can feel upset about overbearing safety systems and still appreciate safety. It’s like saying “man, that’s a real mean dog” and someone coming back at me saying “Excuse me, dogs are great animals. Do you think the blind shouldnt be able to have eye seeing dogs??”
