Collect or swerve? How to deal with ’roos on the road

I’M writing about the perils of having autonomous emergency braking pull you up when there’s a kangaroo, for example, ahead of you and a big truck behind you that can’t pull up in time. I concur with you — with a B-double in my rear view I’d sooner hit the ’roo than brake or have the brakes applied for me. I disagree when you say swerving to miss a ’roo is the “safer option”. This comment flies in the face of all road safety messages put out by police and road safety experts.
