Every safety feature is a slippery slope to sloppy drivers making mistakes. You can make the same arguments about disc brakes, anti-lock brakes, systems that mitigate crossing the center line or running off the road, systems that attempt to bring the car to a stop when a cyclist, pedestrian, or large animal steps in front of the car...
Volvo once had a "pedestrian air bag" that deployed on the front hood if the car detected what appeared to be a pedestrian being struck. Maybe that was a slippery slope to reenacting "Death Race 2000!"
I kid, of course. All safety systems lull people into some false sense of security. The question is not whether that happens, but whether the overall result is more or less safety. In general, we are statistically safer with these systems, even if some people become complacent.
