It’s a safety enhancement. I wouldn’t pay extra for it right now, but some will. And in a matter of time it will be just as common as airbags or back-up cameras.
I will continue to drive older trucks/SUVs and be responsible and careful on my own-mechanical objects are more fallible than humans-they cannot reason-I love that stuff on the kitchen appliances, on the computer, the TV-but not something that could get me or someone else killed-and from a case management view, sounds like an insurance nightmare...
I was badly injured by an airbag that deployed when it should not have-I hate them...
