Taking turns
(lemmy.nz)
Let me introduce you to the BAB 7, 960 KM of Autobahn, no turning required.
Let me introduce you to any BMW driver.
Turns? There are no turns.
What is this then 
That is uh... that's a projection error!
A stretch of road that can be handled by Lane Assist. /sarc
TIL lane assist does not turn
Some ping pong you between the lanes, although the one I'm thinking of disables itself after a few ping pongs I'm assuming to prevent this exact thing. I don't know about all manufacturers and makes. There's a lot of different implementations.
Yeah VAG lane assist will aggressively try to keep you in lane, including when it gets confused by lines going at odd angles at a junction or sometimes midway round a corner. Nothing quite like having the steering wheel unexpectedly jerked the wrong direction mid turn to scare the shit out of you on a leisurely cruise. First thing I switch off when I start the car.
And it turns back on the next start right? Honestly I find that in itself so presumtuous
It does, but in fairness I think there's an EU reg requiring this to happen (I'm assuming the UK is the same or they just don't differentiate) it wouldn't be so bad if there was some kind of beepy lane assist I could switch to that would still satisfy the regulations would be fine.
They've also got a super aggressive reversing auto-brake if the car detects a pedestrian in range while you're reversing. I swear I think I've crashed into something every time it triggers, which is mostly while I'm slowly reversing towards my driveway and it detects my gate post.
I have walked 500 miles and I will walk 500 more... Great now that song is stuck in my head
Caaause you know I'd walk a thousand miles, if I could just, see, you... tonight
🎹
And I would drive 500 miles and I would drive 500 more just to be the man who drove 1000 miles to get stuck at your door.
I need gas (I need gas) Ga ga ga ga ga ga ga gas.
I just completed 5500 miles or so of road trip split between 2 trips and didn't take any turns.
CANYONERO!
I did 1800km in 21 hrs in one stint. Obviously stopped for fuel and snacks, but was loopy at the end. I don't know how people do 25+ for the Cannonball runs. My brain was so cooked.
Martha is a bitch
