A lot fewer. As the Deputy is aware, it is one of the safest forms of travel because human error has been removed. It is the reason that it is relatively safer to get into an aeroplane than into a car because there is less human input involved. Therefore, while I do not believe that electronics cannot be tampered with or that they are foolproof, in many cases they provide a better result. In industries throughout the world, it is evident that electronics provide a more consistent result than does human intervention. This measure should at least be tried and I need this section to do so. However, if the Opposition is opposed, it must be put to a vote.
