How do you guys feel about the 2022 requirement for automatic braking in US cars? I don't want a car to nanny me.

driving on the street sucks so much *** i have no desire to have any control over the vehicle ever anymore. as soon as i can buy a fully automated car with the seats all facing each other i will buy a house far away and spend that commuting time with my family* instead.

*by family i mean facebook or HT

You should talk to the rogue BART tweeter about how the street sucks. He will give you an honest answer about how BART is not the best alternative, but an alternative nevertheless.
