2019 Chevrolet Silverado Gets 2.7-Liter Turbo Four-Cylinder Engine | High Quality Fuel Injection Nozzle

Before denouncing these devices, check with traffic officers (police), paramedics, fire fighters, emergency room physicians, who actually are routinely involved with major traffic collisions and ask them what they (or their associations) think about adding safety devices to vehicles.

Right on jagboi. In my case it was nothing as severe, but even a gentle nudge or resistance on the wheel can be incredibly unnerving when you’re on the highway in the rain and use the steering to feel for what the traction conditions are like and are holding a line around a curve on the highway. In my case passing a semi and holding myself towards the left edge of the outer lane.

The experience made me reflect on my early days in the business, when it was common for a customer to return after a few days for a final adjustment.

I think in at least some of the cases, detractors don’t like these active safety mechanisms because it forces them to admit that they aren’t as safe as they think they are. Every time the car beeps during a lane change, it’s a reminder that they didn’t use their signal like they should have. Every time the car beeps and applies the brakes when the car in front of them stops quickly, it reminds them that they were following too close.

This is, I am sure, not likely to be a popular opinion, but so be it. I’d rather be sharing the road with grandpa driving a car that will warn him when he strays out of his lane or that will brake for him if he doesn’t see the deer or child in the road. It will make things safer, period.

The truck is also said to have issues with updated software. With this kind of risk that came with the truck, if you can’t go for other trucks within the same class then you would rather check if the systems have been updated.

As for me, I won’t buy a new car unless I can turn this technology off – even if I have to pull a fuse or two.

Why not just teach your children to identify these dangers, and drive defensively around them them and/or avoid them, instead of relying on others to do it for them?

There have also been times when the heat just does not shut off, which can make anyone uncomfortable.

Again: The technology isn’t ready yet. For those who think it’s better than nothing, talk to the parents of young children who were killed in parking lot fender-benders while in vehicles with first-generation airbags. It was one thing to test new technology when I was racing cars. I will not be a beta test dummy as a consumer.
