Unbelievable Hidden Automobile Features You Must Not Overlook

Ensure the Driving Direction

If we were to attempt to count the number of times drivers inadvertently drifted into neighboring lanes or onto the shoulder, it would be a substantial undertaking. That's why car manufacturers are increasingly integrating lane-departure warning systems (LDWS) and lane-keep assistance systems (LKAS) into their vehicles.

Both LDWS and LKAS systems serve a similar purpose, relying on windshield-mounted cameras to detect lane markings ahead of the vehicle and ensure it stays within the intended lane. LDWS warns the driver through audible alerts or vibrations in the steering wheel, while LKAS goes a step further by automatically correcting the car's direction to keep it within the lane.

To activate these systems, drivers often need to manually enable them using buttons located on the dashboard. Therefore, if you have a newer vehicle, it's advisable to check if these features are present and learn how to use them effectively.
