New engines could be a problem

[JumbleDuck]

My daughters Golf has most of the self drive gizmos on already, Everything except the steering and I suspect that is hidden in the software somewhere. Anyway was driving it the other week with the distance braking on, I wondered what would happen if I got too close to the stopped car in front of me. It started by braking hard then it started squeaking at me and a sign came up on the dash BRAKE HARD NOW!
But it didnt actuall come to stop, it waited for me!

If it's unhappy - which means if the cylinder head temperature is excessive, if the engine oil pressure is too low or if the hydraulic reservoir pressure is too low, my Citroën lights up a huge red light on the dashboard marked "STOP" and expects me to do the necessary. Mind you, that's 50s technology.

The elephant in the room that everyone keeps avoiding is where is all this power going to come from?

A lot more valleys in Wales in Scotland, or maybe through the interconnector from France.
