A junker, something that runs but is hail damaged, dented, etc. There will be fender benders. [/quote]

I would not get anything too old, as [b]modern cars have emergency breaking[/b], and such which are huge safety improvements for a new driver[/quote]
You mean ABS and power assist braking I assume. Anything from the early 1980s or newer will have that. [/quote]

Have you been under a rock?  Cars after 2010 have a lot more safety features than abs and power assist braking.

Newer cars self drive so even the most basic of cars have [b]self braking, collision avoidance, lane guidance[/b] etc.  The cars use cameras.

If my car feels I will hit something it starts braking before I do and starts activating a system to prepare for a collision.  It activates when deer and small kids jump out onto the road.  [/quote]

Turn those features off. They cause more accidents than they prevent. Almost like the body shop industry and insurance corporations are working together to increase traffic accidents. [/quote]

Collission avoidance only cause more accidents if you are a terrible driver who depends on them to drive while you text.

I'm not a fan of lane keeping, as if you don't use the blinker it can cause you to overcorrect, but agan, that's user error.[/quote]
