it's the invincibility gene that sometimes gets turned off after the first accident

The round things are very short range sensors for parking assist.
The "big module" is used by the ACC and likely millimeter wave radar better suited to longer distances and higher speeds. Not sure if pre collision assist/AEB will use this sensor in addition to the windshield camera or not.
Yep, we were all young once and have some driving stories that fall on us.
What’s wonderful about what you’ve shared is that you explained things properly to your grandson; he’ll remember that and he knows that you won‘t make excuses for him.
He’ll respect that and learn, so we must all respect the way you’re helping to bring him up; it’s all for his benefit and he’ll appreciate it when he has kids, he’s likely to then pay it forward, so your lesson may save one of your great grandkids in the future.
That’s a cheers to you, friend!

I don’t know if it auto brakes but it definitely reduces stopping distance. I had someone cut me off and it triggered some beeping and I stopped HARD.
Sorry it didn’t help with her situation - I’ve had it trigger a warning a few times when the road curves but the markings weren’t great.

It does use input from the CCM if equipped for additional information.

Think I read that they somehow all work together depending on conditions and distance. Saying that, I will admit I don't remember if that was this system or the one for BMW, but what I do know is that if you have the round thingies, you've got the radar, but not sure if it works the other way around, so if you say it does, I believe you.
(1) "it happened while she was checking traffic and she was moving into a left lane."
So she was not looking ahead
(2) Bronco does not stop like a "normal" vehicle
So she didn't allow herself enough room
She's not a bad person - could've be any one of us, but she's at fault.

You get front parking aid sensors without ACC if you have the high package.
When I was 16-18 years old i crashed everything i drove. Seriously…..i was an idiot. My parents fixed the first two…..then said buy your own car to wreck. I did…..and I did. Drove way to fast everywhere I went. Cops noticed too and within a couple of years I went without a license for 3 months. Riding a bike to your girlfriends house sucks….
Do the manuals have the braking as well? Started wondering if because I have a manual that is why it didn’t apply the brakes for me. Would need to have the clutch also be controlled electronically to make it all work?

the 7MT vehicles have AEB. perfectly acceptable to stall the engine when the AEB kicks in.

That's all correct. I am amazed though at how many people here can keep their eye on the road and check their surroundings at the same time. What is the technique? Independently moving eyes? Mirrors?
