&gt; Collision detection was not designed to work under human supervision, which means when it runs into something, it has failed its design.<p>From your quote upthread:<p>&gt; &quot;Digital control of motors, brakes, and steering <i>helps avoid</i> collisions from the front and sides, and <i>prevents</i> the car from wandering off the road.&quot;<p>(Emphasis mine.)<p>Notice the shift in language from &quot;helps avoid&quot; to &quot;prevents&quot; when describing the two different aspects of the car&#x27;s thrust and positioning systems. The different is <i>significant</i> and <i>important</i>. It&#x27;s clear that the systems are a front and side collision <i>assistance</i> system, not a front and side collision <i>prevention</i> system.<p>You see the distinction?
