   One of my coworkers had a new Honda CR-V with driver assist. One day on the Interstate he came upon some construction. All lanes were moved to the left and as he tried to turn the wheel to go into the temporary lane the vehicle started fighting him and sounding an alarm, trying to force him into the lane that was blocked off. He said it took quite a bit of strength to force the CR-V into the correct lane and he wondered what would have happened if the driver was elderly or physically impaired. The dealership said there’s no way to turn it off, either.
