Automatic Emergency Braking - Sometimes...maybe..it depends...etc

[Wingsy]

yesterday I had Emergency Braking save me from accelerating into the car in front of me when I took my eyes off the road in traffic and hit the accelerator. I was really shocked it worked. It slammed on the brakes and kept the car stationary for a few seconds. Wouldn't let me resume driving for about 5-10 seconds. The system was beeping and notifying me E Braking In Progress.

I will not assume it will do that again, but it did save me.

Well that's contrary to what the manual says AEB will do. It says AEB will slow you down by 30mph and then it is up to the driver to do the rest.
