l wonder what the "new lines of enquiry" are. l did have a couple of questions such as why the collision avoidance system didn't intervene.
Maybe it doesn't work with stationary objects. Although it's supposed to stop distracted drivers from shunting the car in front if it brakes unexpectedly. |

Yes, that is my question too (see my post on previous page). And damn right it should work with a stationary object.
Clearly the family have many similar questions and the Police now realise they’ve dropped the ball on this very tragic case. The family deserve better. 23.5MY 90 V8 Carpathian grey |

The AEB can be overridden by the driver, eg by applying the brake or presumably by mashing the accelerator. Current vehicle: 2020 Defender 110S
