@kentindell that 50 year old thing?

@kentindell @CrackedWindscreen Look, Ken, we all know that you become a car security expert by getting up at 3am to meditate, eating organic quinoa and avoiding caffeine.
LinkedIn has to be right…

Also, stop pontificating about what a car ended up killing a school child and injuring others when you have ZERO facts.

What an abhorrent lot these people are.

@CrackedWindscreen Oh. Now I have to know what you are subtweeting (sub-tooting?)... 🤔

CrackedWindscreen, 10 months ago

@adamjcook a car ran through a fence and into a school killing a poor child and injuring others.

Now the "experts" are shouting 'but AEB should've protected everyone'.

This proves the PR machine has worked well at trampling over the truth. And that ghouls are idiots.

@CrackedWindscreen Tragic.

Really.

Indeed. These incidents require an exhaustive root cause analysis... which is, as you know, very rarely performed.

But the knee-jerk "just sprinkle a little automation on it" is a absolute Cancer of Simplicity that has zero #SystemsSafety foundation.

There are immense downsides to automation that are very vague.

CrackedWindscreen, 10 months ago

@adamjcook yep. But that's the magic of the hype machine, even those advocating for it to be brought into legislation do not know it fails and isn't infallible.

@CrackedWindscreen Unsurprisingly.

#NCAP, as you and I have discussed before at length, has been a prime party in inappropriately expanding the scope, reliability and applicability of their AEB assessments.

All in the interests of providing cover for disinterested auto safety regulators.

#EuroNCAP has VERY simplistic AEB assessments that involve child-sized mannequins, by design.

Politicians, if they even need a basis, are going to point to those assessments as a "quick fix".

@adamjcook yeah. Simplistic testing coupled with that disingenuous stat about 30,000 times AEB saved lives, that has become commonly accepted as true when it’s not.
