Does the 2010 Ford Taurus brake itself?
I read that it has brake support, but it just says the brakes are precharged. Does this mean that the car will brake, if you don’t?

here u go man!
Active safety technology in Ford Taurus takes a giant step forward with the available new, class-exclusive* Adaptive Cruise Control and Collision Warning with Brake Support. Adaptive Cruise Control is a truly adaptable feature. Activate it and it functions just like normal cruise control — with one exception. When adaptive cruise control sensors detect traffic slowing, your vehicle also slows down. When its sensors detect traffic has cleared, your vehicle resumes the set speed. Collision Warning with Brake Support helps in case an accident appears imminent. This function will alert you if it senses a potential collision with the car in front of you. A “heads-up” display, which simulates brake lights, flashes on the windshield. If you don’t react and a collision is imminent, the brakes will precharge and increase brake assist sensitivity to provide full responsiveness when you brake. Adaptive Cruise Control and Collision Warning with Brake Support is available on 2010 Taurus Limited and SHO models.
No idea exactly what it means, but I’m sure it doesn’t apply the brakes for you. In a couple of years cars will have that technology, but not yet.
