I found the "action suppression" system very interesting, and I think that is new information. Essentially, for 1 whole second after an emergency situation is detected, the system does nothing at all by design. It even suppresses planned breaking maneuvers. If the operator doesn't take over control after one second, the car will slow down slowly, not even using the full allowed braking power for regular driving (not to speak of actual emergency braking, which the system wasn't allowed to do at all).

- jraptors 7y agoThe insane and arguably negligent part of this is that in a situation where false positives result in braking and false negatives result in death, that as an engineer you don't go with braking
