Active Park Assist hit another vehicle

Sounds like it works about as well as Trailer Reverse Steering.

...he only uses the brake when the car says "Stop" and let it just roll by itself, that's why it's going that "fast".

Were you parking on an incline or decline? That would certainly make it roll faster.

Yes, you have to enable before you find a spot. It finds the spot for you. But it seems to only work on the right side to find a spot. And slow is relative. I mean you would drive like normal to find a spot.

So you are saying it will find a spot doing 45mph?

Since 45 mph is above the enable speed I guess it won't.

I'm not driving under 20 mpg on a main road trying to find a spot to park, good way to get rear ended.

That statement makes no sense. 20 mph on a main road that allows parallel parking on the street and you think someone will rear-end you? Give me a break. Never once had thar happen in 30 years of city driving.

Heck I thought that‘s what bumpers are for, sorta like “curb feelers”… You’ve got to be old to remember those… Oops, busted myself.

I don't live in hickville.
Drive in Boston for a day and tell me you can drive slow looking for spots. Ain't happening. You drive normal until you find a spot then slow down at it, park sense will not work as it did not "find" the spot itself.

I've driven in LA, Chicago, NY, Miami, and a few others. They seem pretty far from Hicksville. But keep telling yourself whatever you want.

Nope... flat parking area at the mall. The road could have been a bit smooth, but there was nothing noticeable about wheel spin.

I've seen a lot of curb feelers. Usually on pimp rides, to protect the gangster wall tires.
