I have regularly seen information from USA that since more 'driver aids' such as auto collision avoidance braking, lane departure warning, speed limit sign recognition etc etc that accidents have INCREASED by 15% since 2014. The more so called aids you fit the less attention drivers pay - the law of unintended consequences applies for sure.

Safety organisations also worry about the 'under-reporting' of cell phone use accidents, where a lot of times the use of a cell phone does not even appear in the accident reports.
