Wow, I've had the same thing in two different cars (Ford & Mazda), and it is awful.
Always false alarms, never in time that I could brake at a time that I wouldn't otherwise, and distracting enough to be a real worry. The only situation I can conceive of it being useful is if the driver is falling asleep on the highway.
What were the situations where yours triggered and actually helped?
- Tade0 4y agoFirst was my first day with glasses - I didn't anticipate that my depth perception would be so different so the sensor beeped when traffic in front of me stopped due to a changing light. Second was the car in front of me hitting the brakes when I was looking in the rearview mirror because both of us wanted to overtake the truck in front of us - that other person in the last moment decided not to do it. Or perhaps they weren't planning on that and just didn't see the truck - I didn't see them indicate.
- toss1 4y agoInteresting thanks - could see how it could have helped in those situations. And in both, you managed to see/hear the warning and brake in time - impressive!
