Well said, I’ve got it and glad of it although, when overtaking or veering over the centre line to avoid stationary vehicles or obstacles etc you do have to fight it a bit…..Great vid 👍
I think lane assist is probably the most dangerous feature fitted to modern cars. On my wife's car it can be switched off by default, but not on my #SkodaEnyaq, I have to switch it off on every journey. Most of my driving is on unmarked country roads where lane assist can make driving both unpleasant and potentially dangerous. We should be able to switch it off by default at least.
As pointed out in the video, it certainly has limitations when it comes to unmarked country roads, which is why it can be overridden and/or turned off as needs be. Not sure it should be possible to switch it off by default though, as then the owner potentially always leaves it off and never benefits from it when the road markings are up to scratch. Thanks for your feedback. ^Shane
I really can't agree with your comments regarding LA contributing to road safety. I'm a very high mileage motorist & I really enjoy driving. I can't bear having my steering wheel yanked all day long as I'm visiting forestry in remote areas in the course of my work. You do realise that LA responds to changes in the tarmac surface, like roadworks etc. Some day a pedestrian will be killed or maimed by a car swerving on a lonely country road. We must be allowed to switch it off.
It can be switched off in many cases. And we do say that it doesn't work well in every situation, but for many motorists it can make a positive difference.

Using the indicator in such circumstances may prevent you from having to work against it. Good to hear that you like having it.

Driver assist is the VAR of the car. Utterly pointless shite that spoils everything.

lane assist is fucking dangerous
Bad experience with it?
@@CompletecarIevery much so. I like to be in control of the car, all this resistance is pissing me off
Are you for real! its a bloody death trap! Should be default off, not on
