I have a smart car. Too smart for it's own good some days.
Not only does it start like a spaceship (look ma! no keys!), but it also has a sensor built into the passenger seat which will set off a flashing seatbelt light and a constant warning beep if the passenger sitting in that seat weighs over 40lbs and refuses to fasten the seatbelt.
Pretty cool safety feature. Until, the passenger isn't human. Then it's just annoying.
Say, for instance, you have about 75 rolls of various coinage sitting on the seat. That's about the right weight to set it off. (not to mention, rip your arm out of its socket while trying to lift it all!)
Doing some fairly quick math, you can guess that I had somewhere between $37.50 (if it were all pennies) and $3750 (if it were all toonies) in coin in my possession at the time. Too bad none of it was mine.

My car has that feature. I hate it.
