I guess they didn’t take account of all the software glitches that could present significant safety concerns...

Actually, my thought was that if it did so well with the current software, the safety features should be even better when the software is fixed.

I suppose you never think about whether safety features will actually work when they need to? I was blissfully driving an Audi S3 for nearly 8 years before I was rear ended by a much bigger car and shoved into the car in front in a queue on an A road.

Apart from the shock of it all, I was impressed that the airbags went off as intended and the seat belt pre-tensioners fired. 👍

RIP S3...

I'm pretty sure the emergency braking stopped me rear-ending other car in my GTE. I had a few close shaves in the e-Golf too.
