One In Five Drivers Switches Off The Safety Tech Meant To Save Their Lives

God, every time.
Lane keep assist. Don’t tell me how to drive my own car.
You can’t even show me the right speed limit due a sign on a different road that say 5MPH, when I’m on a 30MPH road, and suddenly you start beeping at me cause I’m going too fast?
Randomly flashing up the BRAKE! Warning for no reason at all?
None of this tech works correctly, and until it does, it all gets turned off every single time 8 start the engine.

Lane assist almost crashed me once. Lines were painted over as the lanes were rerouted due to a construction. This must have confused the system, as it tried to pull me into the concrete wall to the right.
I stopped and turned it off at the next gas station. Never again
