That's not how I see it. Computers react faster than humans even setting aside the mechanical delay of lifting your foot, moving it, and pressing it down again.
It's more like running a linter on your code. 99.99% of the time it isn't necessary and you already knew what it was going to say, but the one time it does catch something important it's a life saver.
- lazide 4y agoThere is very little reason to be in a state where the advantage is the difference between a collision and not, is I think what they were referring to. Adequate following distance, conservative driving, etc. Not like that happens on freeways in any city, of course, but the point is - it shouldn’t matter, but should be nice to have. Unfortunately, I’ve had numerous false triggers (highway construction barriers coming in rapidly from the side, while other traffic merged in), which made me disable mine. It’s almost caused several accidents in the last few years.
