Obviously this will be some safety feature added and we don't need to speculate what that will be. However this sounds like something coming directly as a result of Bryan's accident (and likely other similar accidents).

This is just my opinion, and I have nothing to back it up, but it seems the most devastating accidents are when a car comes to rest and another car comes in and strikes the first car. Maybe they have learned something to help protect the driver in that situation? Whatever it is I hope its something that works as I don't want any drivers hurt or worse ever again.
