Noticed an unusual issue today while driving with ACC activated.
Bright sunny day. No traffic in front or around me. Big trees casting very sharp shadows on the road. Road speed only 60 kph.
All of a sudden, the car braked as I went into the shadows of the trees. It did this three times as I passed through three large shadows.
It looks like the ACC sensors thought the shadows were obstacles in front of me.
Fortunately, vehicles behind were a fair way off and were not inconvenienced, although the drivers must have wondered what the hell I was doing!
It occurred to me that if vehicles had been much closer, the drivers might have thought I was brake testing them!
