This is not one I will cede without evidence, so yeah. With the amusing extra burden that I have yet to know a safe driver that used a dash camera.

I have been in a car where the alert went off that it was engaging aeb. The driver was far too close to the car in front of us...



Let's see, what can I find on youtube in a couple minutes of searching. In increasing order of wrongness:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLRRBHNjCn4 There's a car that it's reasonable to worry about, but it was clearly braking and almost stopped by the time AEB kicked in, and AEB kept going as that car went to zero.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TO6tJnM_HSs Adaptive cruise was already in control and working fine.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCk6yrN453c Absolutely nothing in front.

And whatever happened here probably counts: https://theintercept.com/2023/01/10/tesla-crash-footage-auto...
