将参数作为抽象函数中的可选参数

Question

Lets say I have these classes:

abstract class Car
{
    abstract public function handle(array $data);
}

class CarA extends Car 
{
    public function handle(array $data)
    {
        echo $data['color'];
    }
}

$car= new CarA();
// Here I can pass args as an array
$car->handle([
    "color" => "white"
]);

Which works fine.

The problem:

Now I don't want to pass any args

class CarB extends Car 
{
    public function handle()
    {
        echo 'CarB';
    }
}

$car= new CarB();
// Here I dont wnat to pass any args, I just want to call the method.
$car->handle();

Which doesn't work. I face an error: must be compatible with

What I want?

I want the 'handle' function to work only when array data is passed or none.

Your function must have the same signature, so what you can try is making the function without argument: handle() and when you need an argument just pass it when calling the method and retrieve them with func_get_args
