CAN you write an Economist picture caption? The excellent standard of entries in our previous competitions suggests that many of you can. Here's a new chance for you to see your wit in print.

The photograph above will accompany an article in the Business section in this week's issue. It is a scene from "Knight Rider", a 1980s television show. Actor David Hasselhoff is standing in KITT, a talking car which is able to drive itself. Thirty years after the programme was first broadcast, truly intelligent automobiles have yet to be produced. But new models are increasingly being equipped with gadgetry that can park the car automatically, keep it in lane and a safe distance from the car ahead, and apply the brakes when an imminent collision is detected. Will all this wizardry make motoring safer, or will it make drivers even more careless? Will all this gear be a great selling-point for the carmakers, or just an extra manufacturing cost?

As before, it's up to you to provide the caption: please leave your suggestions in the comments thread below. The captions should be as short and snappy as possible, and ideally no more than about 30 characters long. The best contribution will appear beneath the picture in this week's print edition, which is published on Friday morning. Entries close at midnight London time on Wednesday evening, so you've got a little more than 48 hours. The winner can truthfully claim to have written (at least a few words) for The Economist. Over to you.

Update: The competition is now closed, and the winner has been announced.
