Is not the "people" who drives the car but the "use" that people do with 
the car. You are buying a product that has been probed, tested and 
certified to be driven under certain conditions, it cannot cover all the 
situations.

Anyway, I would like to see the open source car but still not found it.

And the same remains with computers and linux. No one of the systems I 
manage are certified fot running Debian (nor any other version of a linux 
distribution), so if something does not work, I cannot go crying to each 
manufacturer an tell them: "hey, your hardware does not work in Debian", 
they'll just reply me "hey, we only certified our product for windows 
system, we do not even know what is that 'Debian' thing...".
