    Doesn’t seem too complicated… if ANY of the sensors see something in the way that the system can’t resolve then it should stop the vehicle/force the driver to take over

      Then you have a very unreliable system, stopping without actual reason all the time, causing immense frustration for the user. Is it safe? I guess, cars that don’t move generally are. Is it functional? No, not at all.

      I’m not advocating unsafe implementations here, I’m just pointing out that your suggestion doesn’t actually solve the issue, as it leaves a solution that’s not functional.
