    Answered my own question: Internet seems to think you have a chance of being rear ended despite modern systems having sensors to keep that from happening.

    I've had the assembly line stop several times, for whatever reason.
    USUALLY the brushes pull away and stop.
    My fear is when you just sit there with the brushes spinning, grinding off the paint. :)

    It did stick. Overnight. Light is illuminated indicating Parking assist off status.
