However, current AEB systems have limitations in preventing certain types of crashes and are less effective at faster speeds.

> Now imagine this new feature they are proposing and something similar happens. Instead of kicking off at 90 MPH, it's 35 MPH and no one is in front but you have many drivers behind you.
