The tech exists, and vehicles on the road already have it, yet a consortium of carmakers doesn’t want to make this lifesaving equipment standard. The reason is as old as the hills—money.

    I have the same feature in my car. To give more space to cyclists, I have a handy trick: simply turn the steering wheel.

      Yeah I do that in my car too lol. I’m saying in my mom’s car with its lane centering BS if you try and pull to the edge of your lane to give space for a motorcycle or whatever it’ll basically fight your input and try to put you back in the middle of the lane. It’s legitimately dangerous in my opinion.
