    Haha, I love their pronounciation.

    I thought the ad was cute, but I understand how they might worry about kids mimicking it.

    OK, let's see.

    Kid sees ad. Kid grabs keys. Kid unlocks car. Kid gets in car.

    Kid can't reach pedals. End of story.

    I thought that the U.S. had all the crazies that take offense at anything because they are self absorbed and have too much time on their hands. Apparently, the contagion has spread to Australia!
