found to be easily tricked and bad at monitoring driver attention

They didn't even test if the cars could avoid an accident.

I know my car's adaptive cruise can't see a white trailer. It figures it's open sky and accelerates.

I live in the Appalachians and so my commute is twisty mountain roads.

The last car I loaned was a maxima which immediately forgot there was a car in front of me whenever I or the car in front “disappeared” on a turn.

It would also flash tf out of people on turns and hills with its dumb auto highs.
