I'm expecting that in 5 years, automatic emergency braking will be standard in most vehicles. Insurance companies should have lower premiums for these safer cars, which should spur adoption.

I look forward to the day that an accident on the freeway in Portland will be considered highly unusual instead of the current accident every few hours.
