What do you all think of the Driver Emergency Assist feature? I think it's amazing how the system can monitor the driver's actions and detect if the driver's unresponsive. I believe this feature's here for quite sometime already and sounds useful for those worst case scenarios. Thoughts?
 
You've hit on a great point about the practical side of this technology. It's easy to get caught up in the hype around self-driving cars, but features like Driver Emergency Assist are where the real-world safety benefits are most apparent right now. The idea isn't to replace the driver, which is honestly a bit concerning when I hear people talk about it like that. I see it as a feature you hope to never need, but it provides a lot of peace of mind knowing it's there! I think that's a huge step forward for vehicle safety!

yeah, I think it's an incredibly underrated feature, especially for long drives
Knowing that the car could potentially pull over safely if something happened to me or a loved one is a huge peace of mind
but, remember that it's for emergencies. It's not a self driving feature, and active driver engagement is still important
