Cars that drive for you
Anyone else feel like the newest trend in safety equipment for vehicles, i.e. cars that can brake for you or stop you from swerving into a car in your blind spot or whatever, are moreso facilitators of bad driving than the newest version of seatbelts or airbags?
Or am I the only one who seethes with rage when there's a commercial on and some Mom is distracted by whether she left the oven on back at home and would have rear-ended a school bus, except that her car braked for her?
Just seems like there is a big difference between a stronger frame or tires that enable faster decelleration or seatbelts/airbags ... and automatic braking.
