accidents avoidance system fails front of many many reporters etc.

 

I saw this earlier. Pretty embarrassing for Volvo when they are trying to show off their new safety stop feature and it fails.

 

Hahahahaha...

 

 

That was way too funny. made my night

 

Hope the driver is getting that paper for that whip lash

 

I'm not understanding so the car is suppose to stop before it hits the truck?

 

Lol uh....yes

 

Were you expecting some quantum mechanics

 

I was just confuse cause on the radio, Volvo was bragging about a system that stops the car if you get rear-ended, so your car doesn't lunge forward.

 

....they show the car stop multiple times in the beginning of the video, how do you not understand?

 

i think that system is just supposed to apply the brakes and slow down the vehicle before it hits.

you cant honestly expect it to stop in 18 ft do you?
what speed was the car travelling prior to the veiw of the camera and accident? if only it was in english.

but if it was a fail then lol@volvo

 

It shows 35kmh on the side of the car, so I presume that was the speed going into it.
