Lol that's rude. I drove a 94 Corolla for like 20 years. Regardless of what an expert driver like you thinks, these sort of safety features are useful. Not often, and usually one would notice the issue without them and avoid a collision, but there's that occasional situation where they can save your life.

I'm sorry for being rude. I must have been in a bad mood.

I'm not an expert driver, just a careful one. I've never had any driver assistance at all and don't really see the need for them unless you're distracted while driving.

Like, the only way they'd save my life is if they could avoid a front end collision, getting t-boned, or rear ended. They just seem annoying to me.
