Yeah rural Irish roads are something else.
There's an oft-posted meme of a barely accessible country trail in a field with a 100km/h speed sign but this is actually quite common there.
But I can imagine how this is super dangerous. I don't want my car second-guessing me constantly either especially if it can do something dangerous. In rural Ireland in summer you'd often be meeting a tourist coach on a bridge with centimetres to spare. Really not the time for my car to suddenly pull at the wheel.
I think instead of mandating this stuff we should just focus on full self driving. If the car knows so much better let it handle the driving and let me do with my time what I wish as a passenger.
It also takes a whole of complexity in terms of driver/car interaction out of the equation.
