The other day the collision mitigation kicked in on my car when a car in front of me was turning off the road. It reminded me of another thread I saw here (that I can't find now) That thread included a video from a dashcam. I had the same reaction he did...I said "wtf!?!?" LOL I was going about 50mph at the time.
Thankfully nobody was behind me or they may have crashed into the back of me. There was no reason for such sudden braking.
While getting off the highway the other day, the "BRAKE" indication went off as I was changing lanes into the deceleration lane and I thought it would have been REALLY bad if the automatic braking kicked in at that point. It's one of those situation where it's both a deceleration and acceleration lane so it's kind of hectic in afternoon rush hour.
Cars that are in adjoining lanes seem to trigger it some times.
I worry about it happening again, so I changed the setting so it won't go off until cars are closer, but now it never goes off and I wonder how useful it will be now.
Anybody else have experience and/or suggestions with this?
