Now this is to close for comfort but can understand why Volvo did this breaking test.
WTF? 
Ken.
A link would come in handy so we can see what your on about 
.
I’m guessing it’s the Volvo collision avoidance thing.
Just done a pooTube search and I would imagine this is what the OP is referring to -

Well I did post an image Karl but in future will add a link just for you… so sorry.
Ill let you off lol still can’t see this image but I know what your on about now. Clever idea wether I’d trust a computer to stop me ploughing up someone’s arse at 56mph is another matter. i think Id leave it to someone else to test I think.

Does the computer pick up the 24 pallets of groceries that’s just scattered itself all over the trailer after the warehouse loaded it the wrong way round & you had to deliver the 2 front pallets 1st !
Its the O/P user name and profile pic im more concerned with, i.m sure ive seen him in that layby at Wansford 
Basically, if I was a fleet buyer, I’d bite Volvo’s hand off to have that fitted to all the firms trucks.

Nope not me i have never been to Wansford … must be a wannabe me â– â– â– â– â–
I would love to know what the people in the Volvo car are actually saying, as the truck is fast approaching their rear view mirror.They seemed very calm.

That’s a good question still nervy though something that big coming up behind you at speed.
With reference to a reply on here about the pallets of groceries being spewn all over the truck it makes me wonder if that brake test was done laden or unladen â– â– ?
i reckon the white volvo driver bottles it at the end as he puts his foot down and goes before the truck comes to a complete standstill behind him
