Just imagine a number of robot 'car killer' vehicles out there, trundling about armed with railguns and primed to indiscriminately destroy random vehicles without warning. That would solve congestion problems overnight and add a certain excitement to any car journey.

Totally. I found it really disturbing. Back in the early 90s, Dukes nightclub in Chelmsford always used to play the clip on their monitors.

I hated the bit where an early version malfunctioned and picked up that woman in the white labcoat and ****ed her up lol.
