Hyundai's new driver assist features seem great but still don't know if I would be able to trust my life with a computer, what do you think?

Unless you're a powerfully built PH director/driving God type its better to have these systems there to back you up. No one is perfect, everyone makes mistakes and its better to have something there to correct you rather than to rely on luck.

I drove past a wag in a Q7 yesterday while using her ipad. Idiots will be idiots, it's just a question of whether we want to stop them hurting themselves.

Very irresponsible of you. How did you get hold of her iPad by the way?

Thats fine as long as she doesnt harm anyone else in the process

I suppose they could take out a few lamp posts and speed cameras out on the way
