I would never buy another car that didn't have lane-keep assist. It is the single most essential feature in a modern car. A 360 camera is perhaps #2.

Did you see that video of the Toyota van that lane kept into an oncoming truck and even when the driver was trying to go the other way.
>>
>>28839776
Its supposed to deactivate instantly if you grab the wheel.
You also have no idea what was actually happening in that video, you are just assuming something that aligns with your pet narrative that assistive technology is unsafe and intrusive, rather than largely helpful. I agree it should be standardized to try to reduce accidents.

I briefly got to drive a 2025 Buick rental and the only modern "feature" I miss is the adaptive cruise control.
It was very nice to be able to set cruise for speed limit +10, and then let the car do all the work of dealing with the retards in front of me who think it's okay to change their speed every 30 seconds.
It had lane keep assist, but I didn't like it very much. It wouldn't kick in until you were already drifting out of the lane, and at this point I assume people who like it only like it because it enables phone usage while driving.
But, I'm glad I'm without the adaptive cruise again. If my main car had it, then I would be less inclined to drive my older cars, and I like them. And keeping pace with people isn't hard anyway, just annoying.
>>
>>28839790
>It wouldn't kick in until you were already drifting out of the lane
it's not supposed to work that way

Adaptive cruise control is way nicer than lane assist. The latter requires you to hold the steering wheel anyways.
>>
>>28839858
>The latter requires you to hold the steering wheel anyways.
not on my machine
they work together
adaptive cruise means self acceleration with self braking
lane keep is self steering

>it's supposed to
My only experience with driving AIDS is in a rental nissan and it absolutely did not disable with my hands on the wheel.

Kids have training wheels on a bicycle.
A driver is supposed to have control of the vehicle.
Nissan is all I can speak for, but the wheel vibrating and trying to (gently, mind you) turn itself when the car thinks a complicated set of road trun lines is me losing the lane is god fucking awful.

It's shit its all shit and you're a bad person.
>>
>>28840256
>and it absolutely did not disable with my hands on the wheel.
that's not what I mean
if you touch the steering wheel it shouldnt deactivate but if you try to TURN it, it should
its supposed to work with you, but if you make a sudden move, it should deactivate and not try to fight you

there's no way your shitty rental had the latest version of nissan's "pro pilot assist" anyways

It requires electric steering which makes it impossible to drive straight in many cars. We really solved automotive safety!

some systems don't do that, I agree some of the tech is too intrusive

would it be possible to figure out how to get it to work with hydraulic steering?

Literally the first thing I have to turn off in any nucar
I'm not a retard, I know how to keep it between the lines.

Suddenly I can drive in a straight line without consciously micromanaging the wheel. It felt liberating the first time. To me, that's a big deal.
>>
>>28840705
I don't want anything that tries to make steering inputs while I'm driving. Adaptive cruise control with lane centering is fine because it's only on when I choose to use it, lane keep assist is the work of satan.

If you can't lane keep then you can't drive.
Stick to public transport and give the human lane keep assist a tip.
>>
>>28841309
public transport doesn't really work to get me to cool mountain places
I'd like to be able to just program in a gps coordinate into my cuckover, and it should drive me there, including the ability to get it to stop for bathrooms and gas stations and park itself and all that

Basic cruise control is nice.
Adaptive cruise control is cool when it works, super annoying when it doesn't (most of the time) and decides to slow down to 50 on a highway because it detected a car 300ft in front of you even at the tightest setting.
Lane departure warnings are annoying.
Lane keep assist is great for commuting depending on the car. Some actually stay in the middle of the lane, others are way to sensitive and rock back and forth because the paint lines aren't fully straight and will make you sick.
Backup cameras are nice for tight city parking lots.
>>
>>28843119
You know I read so many reviews of adaptive cruise systems saying that it only lets you follow other cars from way too far away, and mine is kinda the opposite. I have it set on furthest away, I don't mind if people cut me off rather that than be tailed, but it has 3 closer settings that let you follow REALLY close and the stop and go function stops like 2 ft from the car in front of you which is super uncanny.
>Lane departure warnings are annoying.
I find it pretty useful, it has saved my hide a few times
>Some actually stay in the middle of the lane,
its not perfect, it works ok on straight highways but you STILL have to drop the transmission from 8th to 7th or 6th if the highway is winding, it won't do that on its own and oddly it will give you a higher gear but ONLY on uphill grades, not downhill ones which is mildly maddening, but this is an older version of the system, I haven't tried the highway driving assist "2" system to compare, and I haven't seen anyone writing or making videos about such a comparison.

I wonder if other systems handle slowing down for tight curves better. It just has to figure out how to downshift for tight curves and hills and slow down a bit too and then speed up again when they are over/it flattens out.
>Backup cameras are nice for tight city parking lots.
I barely use my parking sensors at all because you have to get pretty close for those to turn on and the 360 camera does what you need.

I do wish I could manually activate it at 30 mph or under on dirt roads. It turns on automatically if you are REALLY struggling, but only less than 10mph.
>>
>>28842985
>except electric racks
Unfortunately for these nanny systems to work, they require an electronic rack.

>>
>>28843154
>like the feel of a hydraulic rack
Modern cars are starting to do this via computers that read what the tires are doing and try to use the electric motor to put that feedback back into the wheel, but it's as fake as fake engine noises and fake gear shifts on CVTs. The die-hard petrolheads won't accept it, no matter how convincing it may be, and the normalfags don't actually want any of that in a car.

Honestly, video games have been the worst addiction of my life. Been playing since 3 on the NES. 35 years later I still am known to spend 8+ hours a day gaming. In my 20s I'd do 30+ hour sessions. Almost maxxed out the SAT and SAT? During those tests all I wanted to do was get out and play this new "WoW" game. What a waste of a mind.
Try hard at life? Screw that when you can get fucked up and play games! I was a hard drug addict for a decade+ (very easy when you're a game addict) yet I still think video games had a more-negative impact on my life.
I love them, I still play 30 year old games for hours most days, and that might be the problem.
>>
>>28844192
It would be fun to take you outside and show you cool places and be like "see this is better than games, right?".

You'd be surprised, I live deep innawoods and have a small farm to run. I love just feeding the fish, watching the turtles, deer, goats, and birds as the sun goes down. I drive a convertible and usually have the top down, sometimes I just drive out to state/national parks. I love nature. I also love games, unfortunately. What I don't like is being around other people irl.
>>
>>28839756
i dont trust any new tech that makes those sort of changes for me
some sort of visual warning about lanes or blindspots, sure, but as someone that works in tech, i will never trust it to not fuck up eventually
>>
>>28844435
if you use it enough you become aware of its flaws
basically the problems with my system:
no audible warning when the auto-steer deactivates, it just starts drifting out of the lane which um is bad - I think the revised version probably doesn't do that
if you have an exit there there's no dotted white lines it will cling to the right and auto-exit - it should be trained to follow the nav guidance and not exit - again. the new version supposedly has better awareness for exits and onramps - this system you just have to turn off for those really
but mostly its just like having an extra set of hands on the wheel which is nice, except for winding roads, where its still pretty useless, I wonder if more advanced systems have solved the issue of it being too dumb to downshift and slow down for hairpin curves
>>
>>28844147
I support getting as many retards off the road as possible so that I can actually enjoy driving.
>>
>>28844186
This. A global ban on video games needs to be enacted right now. Too many young men are being lost to this invisible epidemic that is more dangerous than heroin and crack combined.
Men need to be learning real skills. Working on your car is a real skill, racing IRL is a real skill. Upgrading your car and winning a race in Grand Autismo is not.

>its farely useless / nearly homicidal on B and D roads.
kind of
it depends on the angle
I don't get why it can't figure out how to slow down and downshift for curves, but its too stupid for that in the current version
it works if there's lane markers on both sides, and those markers are wide enough
it can handle some curves but anything more than I dunno 20 degrees you will have to slow down and steer it
