I can just see someone following the virtual car and driving straight into the back of a real one!

Ah, maybe that's why we need automated braking - it's for all those people blindly following virtual cars...

Technology for the sake of it!

The lesson is: Be careful of Jags following you round Leamington Spa!

I must be getting old. Actually I am! I don't mind looking out for everything on the road, also looking out as many cars ahead as reasonably possible, not just the first car in front of me. Also keep an eye out for various activities at the side of the road. Especially around schools.

If people got off their phones and stop texting, concentrating on the road would be of greater benefit. Down under there are mutterings from government banning the total use of mobiles in the car.
