Except he made this blanket statement, which seems to berate those who are interested in safety/aid technology.

I agree, but it's not always by choice.

Sure, but just because someone uses said tools, doesn't necessarily mean they're bad at the task. I've honed my parallel parking back when I had to park in Berkely, CA, during rush hour University hours. When a tool is available to make the process easier, and done with better precision, I'm gonna use it.

Then you're gonna hate the future of Autopilots with people playing on their phones and letting the Tech do everything for them. I'm just gonna wait for the first gen to release and watch the news with popcorn at the ready.
