I just noticed something in my manual and the LCD menu today, that I never knew about before, and wanted to share if anyone else is curious.
A common complaint I've seen about the Lane Keep Assist system is that it's not very aggressive. It waits until you've pretty much left the lane, and then gently nudges you back in, then waits for you to pretty much leave the lane again.
Apparently, that's because the default setting for LKA is "normal". There is also an "lane departure warning only (LKA off)" mode, and more importantly a "Active LKA mode."
About the active LKA mode, the manual says:
"The active LKA mode provides more frequent steering wheel control in comparison with the standard LKA mode. Active LKA can reduce the driver's fatigue to assist the steering for maintaining the vehicle IN THE MIDDLE OF THE LANE."
I just turned mine on, I'm about to take it for a spin and see how different it is, will report back!
