I'm driving an 11 year old diesel, the main annoyance I have is that its rear proximity sensors pick up on the trailer hitch (which is detachable, but I prefer to have it attached -- besides, it's probably rusted in place or something now after 11 years). So I always have to disable proximity sensors when backing up. An awkward design, but not really a big issue in practice. You get used to it.

I'm not looking forward to getting a fancy new car with government-mandated always-on systems which try to steer the car into oncoming traffic. The insanity is genuinely unfathomable to me. It is, without exaggeration, a fuck-up of such proportions that it's making me question the whole idea of the EU, as a Norwegian whose position on the EU has historically been that Norway should join it.

Although I suppose being outside of the EU isn't exactly saving Norway from its harebrained legislation.
