I have tried software development for the Windows environment on phones and I suffered a lot of cases of "The light is on but nobody home" when I tried to develop something useful. System calls in the documentation that I wanted to use weren't implemented in the OS.
The problem is that if someone is killed or injured by a DUI driver the penalties are often lower than for an outright premeditated attack.
If someone is killed by DUI it should be 25 to life. Injury - 10 to 25, DUI in general permanent loss of drivers license and 1 year in prison.
I have figured out that some shadows and road patches can trig the braking system.
A side effect of the lane assist is that a lot of the 'feeling' of the road disappears and it makes it harder to find out ice on the road where just subtle changes in the feel of the car indicates bad conditions.
It will probably not work, the camera system will still think it's part of your vehicle.
I'd say that the automatic braking system is dumb as a brick - it thinks that tree shadows and pavement patches are items worth braking for.
It also makes it harder to enter roundabouts because it can't see that vehicles crossing in front of you will be out of the way in time.
Cameras and automated emergency braking already exists on some cars like the Subaru Outback from 2016 that I have, hopefully they can improve it so it doesn't try to brake for tree shadows and pavement repairs.
However, automated emergency braking systems will be a federally mandated standard . . . by 2029. Following the finalization of a new Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is announcing the new safety standard for all passenger cars and light trucks by September 2029.
This technology requires forward-facing camera, which makes both the price and cost of maintenance and repair more expensive. In my view, it does not pass cost vs. benefit analysis.
If there's a third one then it's starting to smell.
Or had Polonium tea.
It's a plausible deniability death.
So now there are two down, one from alleged suicide, one from MRSA.
If there's a third then it's becoming suspicious.
I don't expect that it's the three letter agencies directly - but that doesn't rule out individuals within them that getting money under the table.
After all - a lot of this is about big money.
OK, now I did learn one new thing.
