There is way too much 'Because they can' in todays vehicles,
that does not serve to enhance safety. In fact can be a distraction from any attempted safety features.
The distracting beeping and flashing RED warnings of eminent crashes, AFTER the driver has already recognized, and is reacting to the situation.
Like when you are in the outside lane and the vehicle, ahead is you is in the inside lane, puts on their left turn signal and slows down to make a left hand turn and you are warned of an imminent, major crash when there is no possibility of such.
On a related note, the unrelenting e-mails and snail-mail from Sirius wanting you to pay $19.95 a month for their music, when you already have an AM/FM radio with HD radio in your vehicle. Plus being able to plug in your own music for free. They can't seem to understand "NO!", to well past the point of making it hard to drop their 'service', should you be suckered in.
