The regulations are great, in theory. In practice, I've noticed that implementation of the technologies are lacking. So on paper, lane keeping will keep you on the road when distracted. In practice, it does not. You'll be beeped at a million times, though.

I have two vehicles with lane keeping (a 2017 Chrysler and a 2025 Ford). Both of them work quite well. The system in the Chrysler will nudge you back if you drift outside of your lane, while the system in the Ford will do that plus automatically stay centered in the lane when cruise control is active.

I have driven vehicles that have lane departure warnings without lane keeping, and they're much less useful.

My Tesla is quite accurate about whether I'm looking at the road or not. What car specifically had this issue?

How are they great?

lane assist is fundamentally an unsolvable problem with just a cheap camera, it's in the same category as autonomous driving, that's what these stupid legislation do not get.

Anybody who drove in a construction area with messed up / duplicated lanes can attest how this kind of software stuggles.
