Most cities I've been, pedestrians already walk out in front of traffic. The only thing that stops them is the chance that a driver may not see them and plow into them.

If you imagine a situation where there has been a general loss of civility, you might want to consider there are times when having automatic braking could get you killed. Sometimes, and thankfully those times are rare, you might want to just keep going--your life could depend on it. Being corralled like a sheep by malicious pedestrians could be a real drawback.

Excellent point.

Seems a Zombie Emergency override switch would be in order.
