You see, now I'm thinking, if they cannot be turned off because it's been redefined as a safety system rather than driver assist, how can they have a disclaimer that says 'we aren't responsible if this screws up and you die or kill someone'? That should not be allowed. If you won't allow me to turn it off, you need to be culpable.
Could not agree more, but I,m cynical, or realistic , the authors of the vagaries of any future small print clauses especially those that need translating will also be future careers for imaginative people .
Oh I hear that... I really do
Yet there are other new model cars that do allow it. So either this isn't a thing, or other manufacturers take a different view on what is, and what isn't permitted?
Well, you can turn it off. The main gripe is about how and how often, and its not often mentioned but if you forget to turn it off , you cannot turn it off on the screen whilst moving.
I wish the MG4 did.
I'd love to be able to assign it to a star button that just says 'Just turn off all driver assistance, stupid sign recognition, front and rear collision assist and any other crap you deign that I might need as you think I'm an idiot.' because, as it turns out, I can actually drive, maintain concentration for extended periods and don't want it'. Or am I being pedantic? Answers on a postcard please...
Yes! What a good point!
I’m very anti texting and mobile phoning whilst driving. But it amazes me what distractions are in modern cars.
I'm with you, my phone is out of my reach when I drive, absolutely will not touch it when I'm in the seat. But all these screens to do mundane stuff, you're right, it's way too much of a distraction. Other than radio and AC, I don't do much other than drive.
Exactly the same as you . TalkSport and cold or hot air. Tbh summer or winter my drivers window is down lol
Mellow Magic for me, and yep, hot or cold does it.
You absolutely can!
Well come on then, don't leave us hanging... pleeeease...
Not to mention excessive road signs and markings and other street furniture. Almost guaranteed to distract, switch off the brain and cause an accident.
? You said you can't disable LKA once moving, I countered that you can. Nothing preventing it?
And she’s waiting for you to tell her how
I'm not trying to be obtuse so what am I missing here? You disable LKA on the move in the exact same way you would whilst stationary?
