While fiddling with the cruise control I discovered that the car has steering assistance. Oh my word, it’s lovely!

Yeah yeah, I know, “Don’t rely on the technology, keep your hands on the wheel, pay attention” etc, and I did all that, but what a lot of effort it relieves to have the car keep itself at a steady speed and squarely positioned in the lane.

I’m the first to admit that there’s a lot wrong with our current technologies, but it sure is nice when inventors get it right.

P.S. I got to Halifax on the 24th by plane, then caught a bus to Charlottetown, where my boys met me and took me home.
