VOLVO FORUM

'According to Wired, Volvo claims that the resultant crash was due to human error in prepping the vehicle.
However, it wasn't a total loss with regards to the failed braking test -- the passenger compartment of the S60 was left untouched and the windshield didn't even crack from the 30 mph collision -- so at least Volvo's reputation of building strong safety cages is still intact.'

'Obviously, this is an embarrassment for Volvo, which claims that a technical failure (a low battery) was the culprit. Wired UK reports that the system had been demonstrated earlier and had worked flawlessly, and we have no reason to doubt them.'

'Volvo later claimed, that had there been a human driving, he or she would have noticed the system was not operating correctly.'

Και το αγαπημενο μου..
'The problem is, none of these systems are foolproof, and anything can break down. No matter how many safety features are added to a car, nobody has figured out a way to suspend the laws of physics. Stability control doesn't mean you can't skid, it just reduces the likelihood of a serious spin. Anti-lock brakes don't make you stop faster, they just give you more control. Seatbelts won't help you at all if you don't wear them. So what's the lesson? No matter what kind of car you're driving, and no matter what kind of safety systems it has, remember that ultimately you are the driver, and it's up to you to prevent an accident.'

Δεν νομίζω ότι η μαμά volvo, ασχολείται με της ιδιαιτερότητες και τις στρεβλώσεις της Ελληνικής αγοράς. . Ασε που τα περισσότερα diesel, ο εισαγωγέας δεν τα φέρνει καν στην Ελλάδα , ούτε με παραγγελία.
