Michael Knight: [Being pulled over after falling asleep at the wheel] What's going on? What did I do?
KITT: Deny everything. If I may suggest, deafness is always a good approach to law enforcement officers.

KITT: There's no reason for increased volume. I am scanning your interrogatives quite satisfactorily. I am the voice of Knight Industry 2000's microprocessor. K-I-T-T for easy reference. "KITT", if you prefer.

Devon Miles: Welcome aboard the Knight 2000.
Michael Long: Thank you. What's all this? It looks like Darth Vader's bathroom.
Devon: It's a one-of-a-kind car, Mr. Long. It is the fastest, safest, strongest car in the world. It is also completely fuel-efficient and it is operated entirely by microprocessors, which make it it virtually impossible for it to be involved in any mishap or collision. Unless, of course, specifically so ordered by the pilot.
Michael: Pilot? Don't tell me this thing flies.
Devon: No, but it thinks.
Michael: It thinks? My car thinks?
Devon: We like to think of it as our car.
Answer: KITT didn't choose to go off the cliff in Goliath Returns, it just happened as he tried to avoid Goliath. Just 'cus it happened, doesn't mean It's gonna cure his fear of "flying"
