>There will be four ways in which ISA systems will work to slow the vehicle down, and it will be up to the manufacturers to pick which one they want to use. The EU regulations permit a system that can use a cascaded acoustic warning, a cascaded vibrating warning, an accelerator pedal with haptic feedback, or a speed control function in which the speed of the vehicle will be gradually reduced.

Haptic feedback isn't gonna kill anyone anytime soon.

How many people lift their foot from the brake pedal the first time they experience the antilock system activating?

The first time you experience that should be around the third or fourth driving lesson.

We never did skid recovery practice or emergency stops in drivers ed, but that was decades ago for me.
