This morning, we did some tests, some with dummies, to check the emergency braking systems of various models of vehicles, specifically from Kia. As we have already seen in previous tests over the last two years, the emergency braking systems on the market do not really work beyond a speed of 40 kilometres per hour. The technology has not yet been refined, and the situation is all the more dangerous because the public has not been made fully aware.
This presents a challenge for transportation regulators, particularly in the provinces. I am referring to the organizations that offer driving courses or issue driver's licences. If someone buys a smart vehicle with automated features, such as a Tesla with an autopilot system, governments need to ensure that the new owner is well informed about the technical limitations of these functions and knows when and how to use them. This is in order to keep within their parameters and to avoid dangerous situations. It is extremely important.
There is also the whole issue of developing new regulations for these new technologies.
