I laughed when I saw it a couple weeks ago..people depending on technology to save them.
It's sort of my position about traction control and all that. People end up depending on computers for driving, they never learn the skills for handling things when stuff fails.

It's also interesting that the technology to protect your car is standard, but to protect people it's optional.

It stopped didn't it ................... shame it knocked down the twit first who was standing in front though

Old saying goes .................. 'better late than never'

I might be evil but it was so funny even more hilarious some gonk just stood there and trusted the sensors he could have ended up with tire prints on his face.
