    Yeah, guaranteeing a crash fatal is pretty hard. But doing anything weird to a car while it’s traveling 70 on a highway with traffic has a pretty good chance of killing occupants. If you could make the brakes on just one wheel lock suddenly, you’d have quite a hairy situation.

      I hit <<something>> on my motorcycle in a hard corner at 55+mph, maybe three years ago? Someone I was riding with said it might have been a turtle. :'(

      Somehow I managed to not go down, and that should have been a perfect recipe for a slide into oncoming traffic.

      I’m just saying that if you really want to kill someone, you’d want something a lot more certain than a remote-controlled accident.
