lane

In road transport, a lane is part of a roadway that is designated to be used by a single line of vehicles to control and guide drivers and reduce traffic conflicts. Most public roads (highways) have at least two lanes, one for traffic in each direction, separated by lane markings. On multilane roadways and busier two-lane roads, lanes are designated with road surface markings. Major highways often have two multi-lane roadways separated by a median.
Some roads and bridges that carry very low volumes of traffic are less than 4.6 metres (15 ft) wide, and are only a single lane wide. Vehicles travelling in opposite directions must slow or stop to pass each other. In rural areas, these are often called country lanes. In urban areas, alleys are often only one lane wide. Urban and suburban one lane roads are often designated for one-way traffic.

    Lane Assist Trying To Kill Me!

    I have had my MG4 EV for approximately 4 weeks (2,000 miles and counting!) and my lane assist is most definitely trying to kill me! Leaving it in emergency lane assist is asking for an accident, the car reacts so violently that you can quite easily end up in a different lane, or off the road...

    ACC doesn't always recognise cyclists as being in the same lane

    Bit of a warning, but if a cyclist is cycling on the far left (or presumably right in other jurisdictions) of a lane, the ACC doesn't recognise them as being in front of the car but in an adjacent lane so it doesn't slow down. If the cyclist is cycling to the middle of the lane, then it slows...

    Lane Keep Assist

    In the latest podcast it was confirmed that MG4 owners are going to get an update to LKA after it being reported to the various safety institutions as potentially dangerous. Does anybody know if MG ZS EVs are also going to get the update? My LKA on my ZS is currently turned off, because it...

    Hi friends, First time user, be gentle! New MG 4, happy with it as I am a pensioner and I can charge it from solar. Even with overcast skies I can get 1.4kW and that supplies the charger. Dealer wanted me to come in for the first free service ASAP, but as the suggested 1,500km have not been...

    MG4 Lane change assist

    Does the MG4 have LCA lane change assist? By this I mean being able to automatically change lanes when the indicator is used and the next lane is free. This is not the same thing as LKA lane keep assist which prevents the car from drifting out of the lane. Some people confuse the two features...

    Lane assistance

    OK so here’s the thing. I have an MG4 standard range one year old. I’m delighted with it and have got used to the Lane assist ball ache!! However my son just had a test drive of a MG4 X power beast. He said the LA was off permanently. The dealer didn’t know how or what to do. I’ve just had the...

    How to reliably turn lane keeping off?

    I have tried various ways of turning lane keeping off before I start a journey but the only way to do it reliably has been to do it on the move which is clearly undesirable. I’m finding that if I turn it off soon after entering the car, sometimes I don’t get the confirmation request, and always...

    Touch screen achieves a new low.

    When starting from being parked in a lay-by and wanting to turn off Lane Keep Assist I was unable to get out of SAFETY - POWER OFF - CONFIRM screen. Another reason to get rid of the awfully under developed car. In my opinion it's a real crock of s**t. My wife video's herself trying to exit the...

    Not MG Specific then.......

    On our first drive in Germany, we were impressed with the Seal aside from one caveat – the overly intrusive driver assistance features. But BYD has worked hard to dial these features back in UK cars; they’re still there to help prevent collisions, but the vicious lane keep assist and irritating...

    MG4 lane keeping assist

    Hi, I am looking to purchase a 2023 MG4 ev in the next month. Based on looks and value for money they look worthwhile, however I have noticed on videos that the lane keeping assist and front collision assist can be very agressive. Is this still the case or has the software been updated? Thanks John
