Whoops, that was Chrissie Whitman. My bad. The current governor is a Christie (the fat one).

On this car radiation business, since the components are made in many different places, it's a real crapshoot. You might accept much higher radiation levels on tires, which are far from the occupants, than you would from a molded steering wheel or airbag. It's not like invisible pixie dust that falls only on the sheet metal, and that can be hosed off with a splash of Dawn detergent. And we're not all about to go out and spend $500+ on good radiation sensors to measure what we can from parts of the car (like in the video at the opening of this thread).
