Perhaps it's time for cars to start coming with a standardized kill switch in a standardized location the way motorcycles do.

The funny thing is they aren't really that useful on a motorcycle since nearly all of them are manual transmission and a stuck throttle can be dealt with by simply pulling the clutch, not to mention most motorcycles have a keyed start and almost all of those are in the same location and work the same way. The kill switch is good for confirming that you aren't quite used to a new pair of gloves though.
