A friend's son recently drove him in his new Golf, fitted with collision avoidance systems. The young man drove with his eyes off the road, maximum acceleration everywhere and relied on the system to do the braking and keep him safe, which it did, though Dad said he's never driving with him again .

It's the old anti-Volvo argument, the safer you make cars, the worse people drive. Motorcyclists lived in fear of Volvo 240 drivers
