Hi Doc,
The car I am building IS enclosed and the thought of going through "the
shut-down-bail-out drill seems very real to me.
If nothing else, I intend to practice it blindfolded, and upside down.
It was a suggestion offered in a constructive vein, absolutely no criticism
intended.
I know your car has an abundance of fresh air!! You lucky dog!
I can hardly imagine anyone driving ANY car that he has to search and read the
labels on the switches and buttons in order to use them! ;o) I even try to
familiarize myself with the controls on a rental car before pulling out of the
airport parking lot!
An airplane I used to fly had a WHEEL-shaped knob on the landing gear lever,
and a FLAP-shaped knob on the flap lever. Seemed like a pretty neat idea to me
and the reasoning was obvious.
Like the question posed by George Carlin: "Why are the buttons on the ATM at
the drive-up window at the bank also printed in braille?"
