Automated Vehicular Safety Systems: Are They Safe?

Driver assist features like AEB have been demonstrated to be a beneficial positive for road safety. But when the systems go from giving a warning to alert drivers of a situation, to actively taking control of the vehicle, then those systems had better be good. Very, very good.
Whilst car makers undoubtably put a lot of time and testing into their systems, there will always be an element of keeping up with what other makers are offering, and an element of marketing.
Some car makers will produce very good active systems, others not so good.
