It might be a repost, but some of us haven't seen it.

This "auto park" is a cool idea, but I don't know if this can be a reality. What if an object or person comes into the picture while the car is parking itself, will the system recognize this and stop? What if the driver of the car in back of you suddenly starts to move forward? Only human instincts can adjust to these kinds of situations.
I'm sure it'll allow the driver to use the brakes as necessary or manually override.

I dont know if I like it. Sure it's really cool and very practically for the once who can't park the car in narrow places...
