Actually Kirk never says "Beam me up Scotty, theres no intelligent life down here", that was just a cheap shirt from the 80's. Kirk always says Scotty beam me up. with the word Scotty being first smart one.(at least in the old trek) But the steering wheel problem is operator error, all steering wheels will lock up if you turn the wheel to far without the key in the ignition, its an anti-theft device to keep people from stealing your car. so if they do try to take your car, they at least cant steer the car.
