Pełny opis

Your car is no longer just a machine - it's a computer on wheels running millions of lines of code that can decide, in a split second, whether you live or die.

Sudden unintended accelerations, phantom braking, engines that cut out on the highway, steering that fails, and doors that pop open at speed: deadly software failures are already happening. Yet there are no meaningful safety regulations for the code that controls our cars. Automakers ship flawed software with almost no accountability, while can now seize remote control.

Drawing on explosive cases like Toyota's Sudden Unintended Acceleration scandal - where experts proved software defects caused runaway vehicles - and Honda's acknowledged software-triggered braking failures, software quality expert Maret Jaks exposes what is at times a lethal Wild West on our roads. Because software failures are nearly impossible to trace, companies routinely blame the innocent driver, leaving victims with no proof and no justice.

This is an urgent call to action: we must demand laws with teeth - real safety standards, independent certification, and executive accountability - before software decides to kill again.

The next time a car "decides" to accelerate, brake, or swerve on its own, it could be yours.

Essential reading for every driver.
