Could you lovely people settle a discussion please.
Cars designed for use on the roads in Britain are designed so that if you fall asleep at the wheel, they will gently drift to the left hand side.
yes / no

Baws. I find falling asleep at the wheel makes me drift into oncoming traffic.
Or, like yesterday, I was daydreaming on the bypass, realised I was drifting off to the left and had to swerve at the last minute to avoid ending up in a field.
Fun and games.

for the most part no thats not true but new cars have 'lane management 'or something which alerts you when the car wanders over the whitelines either side of the vehicle

NO - the cars are not designed as such - but the camber of the road is made so that it dispels water to the edges - this also results in cars drifting to the left - thats what's up

Give it a try see what happens. Report back with the results.

It's true and you're all thick.
- Engage0
how do they do the tracking then?
PS I know f all about cars!
- canuck0
Laser beams. It's all about the beams.

and chossy, the key reason which you neglected to mention is that it steers the car away from oncoming traffic, thus causing injury to only the sleeping/stupid driver.

Hey josimarx I didn't give you any money for the pizza..... do you want me to give you some cash today or do you want me to buy the next one cause lets face it dominos is on speed dial he he.

and another thing... you make it sound like it's a bit of technology that does it chossy, it's NOT, it's just an off centre steering wheel, like 1 degree to the left or some shit.

yeah its got something to do with laser beams or similar to parking distance technology but its looking for white or light lines instead of dull tarmac I imagine
theres a bit about it here
- josimarX0
