Many thanks for all the replies folks, it’s great to hear people’s thoughts and experiences regarding these systems. Thanks especially to Glos Guy for your first comment, this “driver assistance” was the one which concerned me most. It’s good to know to that movement of the steering wheel will keep the system happy and continue to move forward.
Like many other organisations I think car manufacturers have forgotten the needs and restrictions of some drivers. Due to my disability I use a remote controller set in a lollipop grip. Personally I believe this is the greatest thing ever invented as without it I wouldn’t be able to drive. The worry is that future technology systems override common sense and safe driving !
The comments regarding the overall standard of driving today are very valid, God only knows how some of these people passed the test (or did they?) We live in a new town with many roundabouts (East Kilbride) and some of the things you see lead me to believe some people believe the lines on the road are there for decoration and their indicator lights are some kind of Christmas decoration !
Guess that’s a subject for another time ! Just discovered this forum the other week – think it’s fantastic and full of helpful and useful information. Keep up the good work folks !!!
