How Boeing Stays Steady When Tragedy Strikes
Even as investigators pick through debris and other evidence from Saturday’s crash in San Francisco, Boeing (BA) shares are perhaps counterintuitively cruising near record highs today. The crash landing of one of the company’s 777 planes left two people dead in what is being reviewed as a potential instance of pilot error.

Why should Boeing not be steady.... I mean really, it was not their fault unqualified pilots were put in a plane, stalled and crashed it... It is like holding GM accountable for a drunk driver hitting a telephone pole.

How about finger print or retina sensitive breath analyzer? Analyzer that gets activated AFTER driver 'sits' on the seat embedded with a weight sensor! He/she gets outs, engine switches off ! How about that ?
So Boeing supposes we are guilty first, and must prove our innocence with regard to the consumption of alcohol? Or are you making that judgement?
Because by adding such a feature that presumes guilt, you condemn every person that purchases a vehicle.
And need I remind you that machines are made by humans. Humans that are quite fallible in nature. I would have thought the episode with burning batteries would have taught that lesson very clearly.
Or are we blinded by the name brand of Boeing?

How Boeing comes into the picture? I categorically excluded them from this sci-fi idea. Air bags are there or the seat belts, in case of need. Every car has many optional or compulsory accessories, depending on local laws. In time to come this provision may also be one of them. Have U never been stopped by cops for check up for DUI test ? Whether U have taken drinks or not! I have been, a man of 68 when I was totally sober. But how could the cop know the fact until he checked me. All as a general precaution, applicable to all or many. So be more gracious for general public order and safety.
