I had a car with "full" auto braking. To be more precise it had a cruise control system that had you set the speed and sensors connected to the brake and the gas pedal kept you at that speed if possible but slowed you down (or stopped you) when it wasn't.

Long story short...I rear ended a guy stopped at a light while using it. I only hit him at about 7MPH and nobody had anything more than a scratch but it still cost me.

Think how Fast you would have hit him without the system!

I wish I would have had auto braking last week when I totaled my Ford F-250. I loved that truck and I’ll not get another one, most likely.
