Its existence has made me change my driving habits for sure, and none of my cars even have AEB. It’s a nagging sense that the car directly in front of me is going to come to a screeching halt for no reason and it’s up to my own reaction time to avoid rear-ending them.

I also got a dashcam, but all things being equal my preference would be to not hit anything in the first place.

That should always be the case, even without AEB.

If it's making people less inclined to tailgate, I'm in favor.
