I like the one that thinks wet potholes are pedestrians so it will just stop while I'm fucking driving in traffic. Absolutely beautiful technology you got there.

I especially love the ones that beep all the fucking time and shake my steering wheel into thinking I blew a tire cause these motherfuckers think my shitty roads with poorly marked lane dividers are me drifting off the road.

The real icing on the cake are the new cameras facing the driver who ask me to remove sunglasses when driving on a sunny day to confirm my eyes are on the road.

Holy shit, fuck car manufacturers! I am never buying any of these smart ass cars.

Source: I rent a lot of new cars with the shittiest features you can imagine.

That's a great summary of why so many people don't use these features.

I just enjoy being the latest version of a crash test dummy.
