I can only guess they aren't paying attention then get jerked back into reality and it's like a reflex. But yeah its super annoying

I don't think they should be driving if it causes them to break.

if you hit the brakes but the person in front of you does not, you're a bad driver.

I notice a lot of people brake reading signs. Not an excuse, but they do.

It would concern me a bit if my car started to break for no reason while I was driving.

And if I started to break, then we have a real problem.

Sometimes I feel like I'm going too fast so I brake to slow down a bit.

I couldn't figure it out myself until I purchased a 2016 VW GTi.

It had automatic forward collision braking as part of it's safety package.

And it would trigger once every other week or so... for no reason at all, causing the GTi to brake *hard* for no reason. Typically on a twisty road with no one in front of me.

When I would take it into VW to get it fixed, they could find no fault and said the system was working as designed.

So I think that this kind of problem is more widespread than we realize, with these systems causing some of the "brake for no reason" situations on the road.

---

Here's a video of the problem in a VW SUV in England. (Turns out the same forward collision warning system is used for all VW vehicles... and had been a known problem with VW vehicles in Europe for some time.)

(It's 10 seconds into the video)

I assume the cars I see braking often like that are doing a bad job of pacing the car in front of them. Like they notice the car in front of them is getting closer, so they brake. And this cycle just repeats over and over.
