    My car isn’t because it’s not even from this millennium, but everything else sure as hell is.

        Wouldn’t be the first time. It seems so normal now, but it was only a little over half a century ago we learned mattresses have consciousness. Back in Galileo’s time everyone thought quarks were real and some people still do.

        We think we know so much about the universe but we don’t.

    The good news is that you can check, and the steps are at the bottom of this piece.

    Yeah right! They list a few sources but the steps don’t appear to be in this article at all

    Damn now I’m wondering about this. I have a very tight driveway with a bush that almost always activates the automatic breaking every time I pull in no matter how slowly or carefully I pull in. I also have a small garage that requires me to pull the vehicle all the way up to the wall to get the door closed, also often activating the break system in the process. Is my car reporting this as a near miss accident every time to my insurance?

    I bet all those flock cameras, and cameras on all the other cars want to sell this too. So even if you have an old car, like most commenters here, the insurance grifters and data thieves will way to fleece you anyway.
