RUSH: You may remember -- it seems like a long time now, maybe a year or more, maybe even longer than that. Every day, ladies and gentlemen -- there were headlines in the newspapers all over the country about runaway SUVs doing this, driving themselves off of the sixth floor of parking garages, running off of interstate bridges, all kinds of things.
