We've all probably heard every question over a dozen times on this episode but today I have a new one to add to the list.

Today,I found my cable guide showing that Kitt vs. Karr would air.I couldn't turn down the chance of watching the highest rated episode of kr.I was watchin the scene where Karr was trying to elude Michael and Kitt.He was headed for a truck carrying oil drums and John was scared of hitting it head on.Karr engaged the manual overide function.Wasn't that system designed to overide the onboard computer of the Knight Series vehicles in favor of what the driver would intend to do?

Yes, manual override is to enforce human control over the CPU. My interpretation is that KARR was testing John, checking to see if he would do what KARR wanted and how much if any resistance he would put up.
