Just like automatic transmissions, for lazy people who can't be bothered changing gears.

Technology like this is not to be soley relied upon, you do so at your own peril (they can be turned off too).
The technology is there to assist people, to further reduce accidents caused by drivers that have been distracted.

Is a Porsche GT3 (or any 911, Cayman or Boxster) any less of a driver's car because of the technology packed into them?
