Just to be clear, I do think the obvious solution to terrible things like this is vastly expanded public transit so that people don’t have to rely on cars to get everywhere, not overhyped technology and driving aids that are still only marginally better than a human driver. I just thought the article was interesting.
I have driven a car with a form of lane assist, it works fine when the lanes are easily seen and the weather is fine. The only way as system like that should be allowed to exist without a disable button is with extremely precise GPS maps because everything else seems to fail.
