So what, it is going to swerve you off the road and cause an accident because there was a big baloon or even a deer that would be much safer to plow over than avoid, but do nothing for a telephone pole that will turn you and your car into biscuits and gravy?

Why doesn't Volvo just save their money and give people driving lessons at the dealership instead.

Well this thing just brakes anyway not steering control. As for running over a deer, you might want to look up the amount of fatalities there are from actually hitting one. They're not soft and squishy.

And for Pete's sake don't we all agree on that? The funny part is the safer people feel in their car the more likely they'll be stupid and get into one. All I'm asking is why is Volvo's test all involve people? I'd actually like to see real statistics where this type of device would actually curb accidents seeing how they failed on identifying a car in front of them the first time.


Lol I actually found a few links to one study.
