In an effort to make things safer for dumb people they are making Collision-avoidance system's mandatory in a few years. The one in my Dodge work truck sucks balls. If you get close to anything it slams on the brakes. No wonder my neck is hurting all the time.
I'm all for the stuff that is tech based to make driving safer/faster. It's the minutia of things that are automated that don't need to be that's annoying. It's a small battle I've fought my whole life. I don't like things that happen automatically that I don't want to. I'd rather risk having the inconvenience of doing it manually than the annoyance of it not working when I want to, working when I don't want it to, or breaking due to overcomplication.
This isn't just cars. It's computer OSes, it's TV menus...it's all of it.
