This is why I’ll never buy one of the new cars that can take over your brakes and steering without your approval.....”to avoid an accident”.......a disaster waiting to happen.......nothing made by man is perfect.......

My wife’s Rav 4 has Toyota’s Safety System. It is mostly good.

In one instance while driving on a eight lane freeway section some idiot crossed from the left lane across the 4 northbound lanes to make an exit on the right he was apparently missing. The car braked before I even saw the idiot crossing in front of us.

On the other hand in some conditions the radar controlled cruise control will slow the Rav 4 as the car ahead is exiting on an off ramp. If has to do with the cruise control uses the fog lines to focus on the car ahead. If the fog line is not continued at the exit the cruise continues to follow the car as it exits and slows
