    Default My V1 alerts to a lot of '10 MBenz I drive by.

    So it is mostly the E, SL, and the S classes that are making my V1 go off, Not only when they brake but when they are driving, I believe it is X, I cannot remember. It is not that big of a deal, but the area I am in...well every other car is Mercedes...

    2010 Mercedes-Benz S400 Hybrid - Specifications, Pictures, Prices

    Camera and radar-based driver assistance systems include Adaptive Highbeam Assist, Lane Keeping Assist and the Pre-Safe brake system linked to the proximity regulating radar, which intervenes autonomously before an impending rear-end collision. Other highlights include the Attention Assist driver drowsiness monitor and Active Body Control with automatic crosswind stabilization.

    The high safety standard typical of the S-Class is further improved by a unique combination of new camera and radar-based driver assistance systems.

    It looks like these luxurious cars have a chip installed in them to make other speeders/drivers slow down when they come by. Nobody wants an accident when driving a Mercedez =]

    I get the same thing to certain Audi's with their lane deparrture assist or whatever they call it. Always on K band and very annoying. I wish the FCC would either prevent automakers from using the frequency or drivers to just F-ing learn how to pay freaking attention and drive. All these stupid "driver aids" are just an excuse for idiots to continue to drive and text, read email, blab on cell phones, etc. Pay G D attention to what you are doing and DRIVE the car you freaking morons!
