That sounds like a great way to guarantee every crash becomes a 100+ car pileup...
With tech like that, surely they would also have other ADAS build in to make sure that wouldn't happen.
I'd hope it's tech that works 100% of the time, too (lol).
I had a rental with lane assist once, and that shit nearly killed me when a dude drifted into my lane and my car decided I needed to stay in the same lane and not move over to avoid them. Thankfully cranking the wheel way harder than I should be at highway speeds overrode the lane assist.
