Driver is still responsible for braking and making sure no kids around etc. It's like cruise control, if you set at 80kmh and bang into a car in front going at 50, you cannot blame the cruise control system.

Jerrcik 1st Gear June 23, 2012 Share June 23, 2012 Seriously......what the hell is Volks thinking? I think that the only reason why this tech is installed is to attract more buyers. But one piece of advice, please do not get the auto park assist. Ask yourself this question, are the insurance companies in Sg accepts this tech? What if you are reversing and parking with this tech and it fails thus contacting the rear of other cars; how to claim than? Claim from Volks? You think Volks will take liability? Do take into consideration of Volks reliability whom has the same failure rate as our SMRT. To me, if you cannot park, please do not drive. Do not let driving be a liability to you and your family. Do not be a hazard on the road. I rather Volks improve on their gearbox reliability and after sales service than to intro new models or techs...
