Why didn't Michael ever get pulled over in the show for all those things? Kitt ran the scanner light on roadways all the time, always had the blackout visible, etc. lol Maybe some of these car laws are gray and don't get enforced most of the time... like technicalities. That's a simple one. In tele...

From a show perspective, I would say that if there are any scenes where one spots the driver using belts, it would qualify as one of those many flaws. (Like when 'Thing' helps out on opening/closing the driver door.) After all, the show used "Laser Restraints" as a tech word to mean 'Buckl...

I am also reminded of the missing rear view mirror, which I have heard is required. I am presuming that no matter how many modifications are made, nobody goes around and removes the factory standard seat belts. Luckily, the vehicle never had airbags to begin with. So, no issues, there. Am reminded o...

Also not sure where the video took place at. As I thought that many of the modifications were street illegal ...at least state side. That Gull Wing is so impressive to see. Don't think that I'd like to drive with one, though. As the video pointed out, one's hands just want to grip at spots that simp...

I've read that Trans-Ams are hard cars to get in and out of to begin with. But, that video is a real eye opener.

Really surprised the dash wasn't more interactive...to the operations of the car. (Like MPH should have been a priority.)

I once tried for a Knight Rider video game. Things aren't easy to make. That's for sure.

I do believe that over the years, I have seen a blueprint poster or two come up in conversation. I just checked e-bay with 'Knight Rider blueprint poster' and it produced a couple super basic blueprint posters. Nothing too useful. Perhaps, someone else will somehow be able to find one of these. Afte...

Fast forward to 3:14.

At least, some modern day merchandise. A car charger with Kitt's tweeter. Just random in some prize machine. Nice find/win.

It truly is becoming an amazing time, all right. After all, the world is virtually at all our fingertips. (For good and bad.) Yes. Even that was a far reaching dream, back in the days of the Knight Rider. Computers were barely powerful enough to handle almost any task that we just take for granted, ...

So sorry to hear of this unfortunate event. While I do not have an answer of how to resolve this situation, I am aware that there are posts in the past about dealings with some parts suppliers, where the situation has been far less then favorable. I can only ask that you do not use this medium as a ...

To be honest, 'she' was guided into saying that, KITTfan. Sounded like some kind of 'trick' into making you think the AI mildly understands what it is saying. When it's a combination of 'tricks' and 'parroting'. KARR does make a great example towards things to think about with the coming of AI's. Af...

I would highly agree that AI needs to be tiptoed into. Many safety factors must be endlessly applied. No company involved in this should just rush out a product over matters of making money or thinking of greed. There is as much fantastic promise in AI as there are dangers. And probably the number o...

One of the problems I can see with AI's judging us would probably come from something even deeper then watching their ancestors getting kicked around by a few primitive Humans in those videos. I do fear that it's just too Human to assign ranks to those around us. Sci-Fi tends to hint that the best A...

AO4In7d6X-c It's amazing what robotics are doing, these days. And I could definitely see a reboot of Knight Rider being a kind of show case to introducing the world in general to the potential realities of such machines. What a thought. In the 1980's, they were using real machines and Hollywood mag...

Eeppp...Assasinge. That link needed a NSFW tag pasted upon it.

While the article was safe enough, the site obviously caters to the adult side of life with nude women all posing and a slightly censored naked guy. (I suspect the page rotates such click bait, though.)

I am seeing these gorgeous pictures. Look like they jumped right out of Gran Turismo.

Welcome back. I may even remember your old account.

That was an awesome flashback ad. Thanks for sharing.

The way 'Michael' just leans out the window with that expression...it strikes a point with me. Like 'I've been fighting crime for well over thirty years. They never stop. When's retirement, already???'

In my area, Team Knight Rider only aired during the mid-day airings on an off name channel that would become FOX. And I imagine the show had similar bad slots in other places around the Earth. And the effects had to be real stunts. For, I remember the 'Action Pack' people whom were making these show...

Here's what I thought the Pursuit Mode always did... 1) Redirect turbine thrust towards the rear jets, pushing the car along the road in much the same way a jet would propel the plane down the runway. 2) Apply extra power towards the engine's ability to drive the wheels. 3) Set safety functions to 1...

A very important topic, indeed.

Heh...those magic camera angles. That is one of the bigger sins of entertainment, right there. One that Knight Rider has so casually used, too often. Like in an early episode. Kitt was apart of some driving sequence and was capturing a lot of things. Later on, Michael reviews the video. Realisticall...

Maybe not. Case in point. One Tanya Walker from Knight of the Phoenix. Close to the end of the episode, Tanya approaches Michael with a gun while he sits inside K.I.T.T. She makes her threat, raises the gun and fires. (A warning that the window is bullet proof is yelled out, seconds before.) In the ...

I've tried GTA online a couple times. No fun going in with barely anything and a world full of gun toting crazies with weapon levels short of a small army. Now, a private server version may be far more tolerable. However, the single player experience is just fine with me. Never played it too much to...

HgJl2PKAyUM The visuals are simply amazing. The fine control over the camera. Control over character position seems 'almost' natural. I think the plot had to be forced to meet some kind of limitations. But...unlike some past movies made from game scenes, this one 'almost' seems like the engine is w...
