except a human driver in front of the Mach-E did see the car and avoided it successfully.

that's why cars with driver assist features are supposed to be using radar to detect obstacles.

im not familiar with the Mach-E's feature here that's referred to as "handsfree". Usually these features are supposed to make sure the driver is still in control of steering at all times, like the Ioniq 5. I'm probably going to be a teeny bit more wary of Mach-Es on the road if they are using a not totally reliable radar detection system.
