I like Teslas Forward Collision Warning system which alerts me if it sees the obstacle such as car, a corner, or pedestrian on a path.
there is also Active collision avoidance that will adjust vehicle if it senses a car on the nearby lane about to hit my side
I think these safety systems need to be mandatory
- ErroneousBosh 4mo ago> I think these safety systems need to be mandatory Why do you think that?
- iknowstuff 4mo agobecause there are a lot of externalities resulting from car crashes, the burden for which is not paid by the driver, manufacturer, or even their insurer.
- ErroneousBosh 4mo agoHave you considered looking out of the windscreen once in a while? How many crashes do you think these prevent?
- iknowstuff 4mo ago40k deaths per year in the US. A million a year worldwide. A world war worth of deaths every decade.
- bijowo1676 4mo agoBecause its cheaper to install these systems (a simple sensor and a chip), than try to resurrect dead pedestrians
- alamortsubite 4mo agoThere have been several studies showing driver assistance systems cause a psychological shift that leads to drivers not paying attention. I guess we have to ask ourselves if we want to encourage people to pay attention while driving, or just leave it up to the latest vibe-coded OTA update Tesla's pushing out. I'm glad backup cameras are mandatory, though.
