Lane keeping assist....

After nearly 11k of driving ..... I have deactivated the system. Most likely only while staying at our Vermont place and driving the two lane roads. But I have found the system to be just a bit annoying on curvy two lane roads .... not so much because I find myself crossing the center line but rather moving over to the right and edging over the side line ( something you seem to do frequently on the rural roads ) Anyway..... I will turn it back on when its back to the freeways, etc.!

Thanks for that input. I had wondered if it might get annoying.

Did you have it on the 'strictest' level, or the one that's a little more tolerant? I seem to remember on, adaptive, and off.

I have mine on but in the forgiving mode and haven't had an issue driving on my country roads.

Same here. We have not had any issues with it either and actually think it is a cool safety feature.

I actually find the system quite helpful and would be hard-pressed to disable it.
