IcEWoLF Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Cruising around 40 and the car in front of me which was far enough stalled in the middle of the road, I was looking for a brief moment on my left and the eyesight precollision warning beeped at me and started breaking, by the time I breaked at full stop I was still few ft away from the stalled car. I am glad of this technology. As a human we have slow reaction, it’s good to have another pair of eyes that is there just Incase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ammcinnis Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 (edited) Just remember that EyeSight is a driver assist system, not an autopilot. You, the driver, are still in charge and responsible. At closure rates above 30 mph, even under ideal conditions, EyeSight may not be able to stop in time to prevent a collision, but it will still reduce the damage and risk of injury. The important thing about EyeSight is that it's always there in the background, a second set of eyes that never get tired, careless, or distracted.

george-in-georgia Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 I can't honestly say that my EyeSight has saved me from any accidents . But it is one of the main reasons that I bought my first Subaru . The technology is a nice aid ........ just in case . OTOH , I bought my then 21 yo son a 2019 Legacy and I'm pretty darn sure that it has saved his bacon ! George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chowser51 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Was driving my daughter's 2020 Impreza and it stopped me before I tagged someone. Whew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Painless Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 It has helped me avoid too many to count and makes my 50k/year commute a breeze. You can still get yourself into an unavoidable collision. As a side note... Still was able to drive her home, no leaks (crumple-zones performed as they should have).

caddygti16v Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 I did come within feet of hitting 2 moose at night this winter and the eye sight didn't register any of them, so driver vigilance is still required. Then again a moose at night is probably one of the hardest things to make out. Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ammcinnis Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 (edited) I did come within feet of hitting 2 moose at night this winter and the eye sight didn't register any of them ... EyeSight was trained to recognize deer, along with vehicles and pedestrians, but probably not moose. Might not recognize a train, either. I will confirm from personal experience, however, that EyeSight will brake for large tumbleweeds blowing across the road.

Sounds super dangerous Envoyé de mon LG-M703 en utilisant Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ammcinnis Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 (edited) Not dangerous at all. I simply applied throttle (which overrides any EyeSight braking) and steered around them ... just as you would avoid any other minor obstacle. EyeSight is a driver assist system, not an autopilot. The driver is still in charge.
