So, I thought this was pretty entertaining when it happened.

A while back, I was taking one of my friends who was visiting from a country where sports cars are very rare and expensive. There are less than 30 NSXs on the road there , and this was the first time riding in one.

Out of the blue, my friend asks if I've ever seen "Men In Black". I reply that I had, and asked why that question suddenly came up. My friend then pointed to the hazard switch, and asked "What does that button do?"

I thought for a second, and started laughing. I guess to someone who rarely sees sports cars, to see a huge red button in an NSX could make imaginations run wild, as it's bigger and "redder" than your average car's hazard switch.

I then explained the rather mundane usage of the hazard button, but proceeded to show how the NSX didn't need a "red button" and did just fine w/o it. :D
