Default Re: 'Electronic safety assistance actually makes driving more dangerous' - your thoughts?

2021 Escape here and i don’t mind them at all.. None are any inconvenience and rarely kick in anyhow.
Now and again you’ll get the flashing “collision imminent” if someone merges too close in front of you, but car has never automatically braked..
Some are even a great thing.. reversing out of a parking spot when view blocked by a van parked beside you for example.. Gives a beep or 2 to let you know someones coming..
And the flashing thing in side mirrors good too especially when a motorbike sneaks into l/h blind spot..
