Microsoft's Software to avoid automobile crashes

Bill gates speaking at the Global Automotive Summit at the Ford's suburban Detroit campus extolled the virtues of embracing technology in manufacture of future automobiles, which will enable automobiles to fix themselves and avoid accidents.

He also said

'There could be a car that wouldn't let itself crash. That absolutely should be the goal'

Well Mr. Gates we have already seen Windows software in all its glory and have heard of rave reviews of it. Your goal of MS software not allowing automobiles to crash is laudable, but before that, It would be nice to have a goal to create a operating system that doesn’t crash.
