How much tech is too much tech in our cars? Analog vs. digital driving.

If you haven't driven the most recent Audis, Teslas, and Volvos, you'd be surprised how smart these vehicles have become and how rapidly previous generations become dated. Driver assistance systems aren't quite fully autonomous yet, but if a car's sensors can read the lines on the road, it will do almost everything for you.
The more tech there is, the less you can do. In older cars you could do simple things like changing the light bulbs, battery or tires. Now you have to inform the electronic system about every little thing you do, which often requires the help of a professional.
