    Of course lane keep warnings need to be configurable. Personally, I disable most of them in any vehicle I drive.

    They give me notification fatigue and pull my attention more often to misinterpreted information than to an an issue that requires my attention. For instance, in construction zones where lines shift or there is a hazard on the shoulder so I hug the center line more. Or even worse, just because the computer lost track of the lanes for a bit.

    Of modern driver aids, the only one I am a big fan of (when done well) is adaptive cruise control. The Subarus I’ve driven have been smooth in handling cars pulling in front of my when on cruise, but the last Honda I drove was very harsh in using regenerative braking.
