My actual commercial, real car, have some ADAS, some times every let's say 1000km driven it decide I'm nearly crushing on someone else triggering not needed "phantom" breaks, while I might have some other cars/bike nearby my rear bumper, normally with automatic braking on parking it does not sense the void so if I trust the system and go back without looking I might and up downhill...
Aside the car is so safe and well done in software terms I often have my car's companion app to open, activate/deactivate A/C etc connect to another car in another country for unknown reasons and I potentially can control some function of that car, while I imaging someone else could control mine...
Do you really want to trust these systems? Do you really want to trust instructions from another peer automatically without any means of human correction? Let's image a trigger to stop an armored bank van somewhere for a robbery...
- Wowfunhappy 2y agoThe current status quo is that forty thousand people die from car crashes in a single year. I think we need to try to use technology to improve the situation, yes.
- gambiting 2y agoAnd vast majority of them are due to drunk drivers, so if you used technology to detect a drunk person behind the wheel you'd cut this number in half if not more, but somehow this has less political support than mandating all cars to have expensive and complicated systems which don't do anything about the main problem of drunk driving.
