This is the panic assist function I referred to above. I'm not a big fan of it;l though it will help someone that can't deal w/ an emergency situation w/ some level of maintained composure/intelligence. It is actually becoming more and more prevalent too, I know the new Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator both have this function.
