The wife owns a 2016 Chevy Impala with collision avoidance. Not automatic braking, but it will disengage the cruise. Had it happen to me twice this weekend, once while traveling a divided four lane, bright sunny conditions, it saw something, disengaged the cruise, beeped at me and flashed red leds in my face. Nothing in the road. Might have been a shadow. Second time was on a city street, approaching a roundabout but still about half a block away, same thing. There was still some ice and snow on the street, nothing fresh, that hard, dirty ice you get when 500 cars pack it down before the plow has a chance to move it. GM does it too, at least this car doesn't slam on the brakes.
