OUR JAGUAR KEY IS UNIQUE FROM OTHER KEYS IN THAT IT IS CYLINDRICAL WITH SMALL NUBS STICKING OUT. WE NEVER HAVE MORE THAN THE SINGLE KEY ON A KEY RING, SO THERE'S NEVER EXCESS WEIGHT ON THE KEY WHILE IT'S INSERTED, BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE KEYS IN OUR LIFE. DUE TO WHERE WE LIVE WE DON'T LOCK OUR HOUSE, SO NO KEYS ARE NECESSARY. THE JAGUAR IS MY WIFE'S CAR, SHE'S TALL, BUT I'M VERY TALL AT 6'4", SO MY KNEE IS HIGHER THAN HERS WHEN I'M DRIVING HER CAR. ON A REGULAR BASIS WHEN I'M DRIVING HER CAR, IF MY KNEE MOVES OVER AND TOUCHES THE IGNITION KEY, FREQUENTLY THE CAR WILL SUDDENLY SHUT OFF. IT USUALLY HAPPENS WHEN I'M TAKING A LEFT AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, SO WHEN THAT HAPPENS I LOSE ALL POWER CONTROL OF THE CAR, THE CAR STOPS SUDDENLY WITHOUT ME HITTING THE BRAKES, SO HOPEFULLY THE GUY BEHIND ME STOPS IN TIME EVEN THOUGH MY BRAKE LIGHTS DON'T LIGHT, AND IT ALWAYS PRESENTS AND EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS AND DANGEROUS SITUATION. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF IT SHUT OFF ON ME AT 70 MPH? I ASSUMED IT WAS
