Mine disconnects when I steer. Both my cars will just beep at you for actively steering across a line, though you do need to overpower the machine's steering
Yeah that "machine's steering" is what pisses me off (and got shut off).
I've been driving for decades. Hundreds of thousands of miles. Everything from small cars to pickups towing 30' trailers, and motorhomes towing cars. I have ONE at-fault accident in my record during all that time (which likely wouldn't have been helped by the nanny features). I do not need the help.
I'm not saying I'm perfect; I make mistakes, too. But the fucking false alarms and shit from the car is distracting. I almost hit the brakes the first time I got a false alarm, because I thought there was something seriously wrong with our new car. It's training me to ignore the alarm, so when I actually do make a mistake it catches, I'll probably just ignore it - making them useless.
