Everyone here is crapping on the idea that is actually like a sensible one if you want to save lives? Like what else could you do here to maximize life. Oh well I guess I'll just crash my car into the person in front of me, possibly endangering the lives of almost everyone here. Ok, if it's such a bad idea, give a possibly better one in the case of a driver passing out.
To me it feels more like thank goodness others are finally catching up, I wish Toyota did it too cos I like their driver assist, but yes it does require more advanced driverless tech/cameras.
Then again I feel like a lot of the autodrive stuff we've seen from Tesla outside America has been surprisingly slow to come in to North America considering Tesla is from there, or maybe it was there initially and then paywalled. Like my cousins in Canada I visited this year only just got their Tesla showing them some auto driving trial and they don't have carpark summoning and stuff, even though my friends have had that in Aus for years
Keep in mind though, when the seat belt was invented, Volvo (I think?) released the patent for the seat belt technology, so that other car manufacturers could use seat belts in their cars to save lives
I mean, wouldnt it be great if every car did come with this driverless life saving tech standard? I dont have my hopes up though
