This is more a case of a sensational headline than the reality. News outlets need them for clicks and to sell copies.

There's a clear case to allow for a driver to override a system. In fact the article states exactly that's how these systems will be implemented. In many ways it's no different to how you can override the adaptive cruise control by putting the foot down and getting closer to a vehicle in the front.

Ultimately lawmakers are people and sense will prevail. There are quite a few other safety systems that'll be mandated as part of this change. Unfortunately all that's lost in a sensational headline.
