Isn't lane assistance required by the NHTSA for new vehicles?

[–] Thorry@feddit.org 3 points 1 week ago

I think that's only lane departure warnings? Not active lane following

I hope not. It ('23 Camry rental) almost got me into an accident when merging onto the freeway because it didn't like how the lines were set up.

Someone forgot to use the turn signal...

Turn signals will disengage the lane assist. Not to give too much crap because it's a rental, but so ya know.

Nope. It could have been an issue with the car or from a crappy repair (trunk had over spray all over the carpeting from a repaint) but, I clearly remember using my signal.

You'd actually be very hard pressed to find me not using my signal, especially when driving a car I don't own.
