I think, things that can control brakes, accelerator and steering can be dangerous. We have adaptive cruise controls that can brake accelerate and even steer without driver's input. How will these systems behave after 10-15 years of usage, corrosion and general wear and tear? Who's to guarantee that your active cruise control wont drive you into a ditch one day when the lines aren't painted perfectly on the road.
I am not against electronics in places where they truly make difference, i.e engine management, active AWD systems, airbags and active restaraint systems, but things like self parking, active cruise controls, start buttons etc. are just toys for masses to justify their 50k car purchase.
