So, as I discovered soon after I got my car in Feb, autobraking is automatic if a pedestrian or obstruction is detected in front of the car... radar and cameras are used

A bit disconcerting if you are following a bus slowly and the car slams on brakes for you and gives you whiplash when it is totally unnecessary... but this week I had an even bigger shock

So I am going along a road at about 40mph with a car close on my tail (but still safe)... and I pass pedestrians on the pavement to my left, not on the road.... and out of the blue the cameras detect these and slam on anchors even though the pedestrian is NOT in my line of travel... crapped myself as the beeps went mad and the brakes automatically and violently engaged... and the driver behind me nearly popped a rivet, thinking I'm driving like a learner driver... nearly crashed into my rear

Just be prepared for an over-sensitive technology... I think it's dangerous myself!
