The Point of Your Rant? A Warning from DCD’s Botched Test of Chinese ADAS: Don’t Blindly Trust Driver-Assistance Systems.
A recent assisted driving test by Dongchedi, involving 36 vehicles in simulated accident scenarios, revealed limitations in current systems. While Tesla performed best, no vehicle flawlessly navigated all tests. Chinese systems, including Huawei’s, fared worse. The test sparked debate about methodology but highlights that even advanced features remain assistive, not autonomous. Official media emphasize inherent risks, with dealerships shifting to a “hands-on, eyes-on” marketing approach. Experts stress that drivers must remain attentive and understand the limitations of Level 2 assisted driving systems.
