Never Rely 100% on Driving Aids

All these new driving aids (Blind Spot Warning, Park Assist, etc) rely on sensors to function.

But, when was the last time you checked the sensors, before climbing behind the wheel and relying on them?

If this Rear View Camera sensor is this dirty,
then aren’t all the sensors this dirty?

How can something this dirty properly function and calibrate? Can’t.

 

 

Driving Aids create Distracted Drivers

I think these new features, the driving and safety aids, are creating complacent drivers.

And who ever checks if the sensor is clean and functioning, before climbing behind the wheel and relying on it?

Check the sensors!

Favourite line:

I worry these new features are masking just how dangerous an activity driving really is. And when the element of danger is removed, so are the consequences of a mistake.
