Default Re: Have Useless "Safety" Features gone too far?

my brother was almost killed by lane departure assist in his new Ranger.
country road and a truck was driving about 1m over the white lines so he tried to vere left then the stupid ranger steered him back into the oncoming truck, luckily the truck corrected and there was no accident but he has left that feature disabled from now on

also now there are so many sensors at the front of the car he can't fit a proper bull bar so next roo he hits is probably going to destroy the car (he does 100,000km a year on country roads)
