True.

When SWMBO bought her most recent car, backup cameras and blind spot
warning indicators were pretty much standard across the market.
One salesperson bragged that she never bothered to look over her
shoulder when backing up or checking mirrors before changing lanes
(as if the technology was infallible).
I use the mirrors for backing up, but actually the rear camera has a better view, so I use it most of the time.

Yep.I have no automatics for changing lanes.I wouldn't *rely* on them but consider them another "input" to be considered.
They tend to be more of an annoyance, though. E.g., if navigating a turn

are more insistent).

(Or, do you just let lawsuits deal with it all, after the fact?)
It is what airplanes do. On certain conditions, the autopilot disengages and sounds some type of alarm in the cockpit.

OK, assume nothing will pop up suddenly and turn your attention to some
other task (and lose track of how much time has elapsed since the last
time you checked your course).
