I don't want the extra weight, expense and size that your proposal would force on new cars just because you are a poor driver. If you are that "dazed" behind the wheel, it is simple: YOU SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING. Pull off the road and stop endangering MY LIFE. I suppose we're lucky that you are in bumper-to-bumper traffic where the worst that will happen is a bit of wrinkled sheetmetal; if you have problems maintaining attention at slow speeds I can only imagine the hazard you would pose at highway speeds.
As a diver, I want sole control of the steering, brakes and throttle. Having a computer step in and second-guess my commands is just as bad as a passenger grabbing the wheel.
