Yeah I have screamed at the car a few times as well for backseat driving (and I'm also someone who disables the satnav voice because I hate being interrupted by someone yelling at me), but at least with VW it's extremely infrequent despite having driven quite aggressively for a couple years before I stopped commuting by car.

It just take one time of it slamming the brakes for one pedestrian to make up for it 100 times over, so I'm fine with it.

(Also specifically the minor crashes will not break the emergency braking systems thankfully, AFAIK it's made up of a battery of sensors on top of the windshield, a computer, and hooks into the braking system alongside the ABS/ESP)

You might be right about the sensors. All I know was that we were in an extremely heavy rainstorm - a time when it would have been nice to have the lane assist - and the system was like, "Ha. I'm useless here and shutting down. You're on your own!" I was assuming some sensors in the bumper or whatever were overwhelmed, but a camera-based system might explain that, too.
