Unfortunately, we are getting smarter. They say that the amount of intelligence on the planet is constant, but the population is growing rapidly. But that is not everything.
The first cars were more like mechanisms, which required a huge amount of professional knowledge and even physical training to operate. At least to be able to turn the wheel or brake quickly and in time.
Not to mention that the first “self-propelled strollers” were literally deadly due to mediocre handling characteristics. And since they were sold not because they could go, but because they could go fast, the accident rate became unacceptably high. And it required significant improvements.
As a result, an irreconcilable battle between speed and safety began. But at the same time, the driver’s intelligence also grew. After all, fast cars demanded a high degree of professionalism from the driver. A person has learned to properly handle a powerful mechanism, taking into account all the nuances of his behavior on the road. And so it was until there was a qualitative leap in automotive electronics.
The beginning was made in 1979, thanks to the arrival of the ABS system from BOSH. It has been developed to provide more effective braking on difficult surfaces and to increase safety levels. But in the end we got a curious effect.
In any case, people have forgotten how to brake professionally, without thinking about how to use the brake pedal correctly. It was enough to apply force to it, and the rest is a matter of smart electronics. The car has become more dangerous, because the speed has increased.
Then a stabilization system appeared, which began to change the car’s handling characteristics depending on the situation. And we stopped thinking about the correct interaction with the accelerator and steering wheel, we just gave the car commands about where to go. And he already tried to fulfill them himself.
Then smart active safety assistants began to appear, taking over the functions of keeping the car on the road, recognizing traffic signs, monitoring the environment, autonomous emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, stopping and moving, and so on.
From that moment on, the driver began to become not even a vehicle driver, but a consumer of mobility services. Without bothering yourself with “extra” thoughts about managing the “iron horse”. But the brain is arranged in such a way that if we don’t load it, it gets boring.
For example, domestic cats and dogs have smaller brains than their wild counterparts because they don’t have to use as much brain power. And to maintain the level of your own intelligence at the proper level even while driving the most modern car, try to at least understand your actions, without leaving everything at the mercy of smart electronics. Which will raise your IQ significantly.
