Lexus LS 460 Lane Keep Assist Video Demonstration
December 16, 2007 Filed under: Lexus LS: 4th Generation, Tech, Videos
The Lane Keep Assist feature, which effectively locks you into a highway lane, may only available on the European & Asian Lexus LS, but it's incredibly effective, at least in the context of this video:
I'm of two minds with this feature. You can never discount added safety, but the movement towards automated driving makes me nervous. At least it doesn't work if you remove your hands from the steering wheel.
Thanks for linking to my video here. I find the LKA to be a mainly stress reducing feature on long highway journeys. I find that on curves, it tends to react even before I plan to start turning the wheel slightly. The result is that I reach my destination fresher than I otherwise might have. The system works well even at night so long as the road markings are fairly clear.
