The Land Rover I have has a smart key. The Toyota Camry my girlfriend drives has a smart key. Little digital devices that just have to be in close proximity to the vehicle to unlock the door or start the engine.

When will the triple-A (equivalent to the RAC or AA in the UK), if they have not already, begin carrying a a few dozen spare watch batteries in their tool kits for stranded motorists who ignored the “low battery” warning on their dash board?

There is a certain class of people who cannot even remember to fill up their petrol tank, car manufacturers expect these same people to replace batteries too?
