Just for the sake of balance I spent some time last evening looking up stats on whether these various systems make cars safer and, as a sceptic, the evidence, from a multitude of sources does indicate improvements in safety.
Just done a supermarket run, no orange steering wheels but the traffic was light. I'm moving towards a selective approach to the systems. Early last month we had a week in the lakes in our Mk3 - some of the narrow roads would have had the system going absolutely bonkers. If faced with these conditions, disabling the system is the obvious way forward. I feel the RDMS would lead to collisions in these circs or, at the very least, scratches and dents and, of course, insurance claims.
