the SUV deployed its emergency breaks for the first time ever on me. No surprises what road i was on: the monash.
if i was in the old hatch we woulda hit, no doubt. But the SUV saw and responded before I even noticed the threat and broke so hard my face hurts. Have to say, I am impressed with it.
Mine just has a “safety” feature where it screeches at me when there’s something ahead, so I have to have a heart attack, work out what the alert is for, and THEN start breaking. It actually distracts from whatever hazard’s come up in front of me.

For all the stupid technology added to cars over the past 20 years, it’s easy to forget that there has been some awesome tech added as well.

The Kia Carnival we had at the last place did that once when a plastic bag flew out in front of us. 110km/h down the freeway. Nearly got rear ended
