It wasn't until I got back to the office that I figured out that LDW meant Lane Departure Warning. I am a smooth driver, and pride myself on keeping between the lanes and looking ahead, but this car forced me to pay attention to the dash.
This is the same car that turns a rearviw camera angle and shows what's behind me when you turn the right turn signal "on". I'm trying to look through the corner that I am about to turn, and all of a sudden the huge NAV screen steals my attention away to show the car behind me ?
I hate new technology !
