As an owner of a car with ACC and lane keeping, I frequently get to experience the always fun sensation of my car accelerating full bore at a turn. My understanding is that Tesla actually made the two systems talk to each other, which is definitely not the case in my Honda. Calling it "just" ACC and lane keeping is disingenuous.

I have an Audi and they actually include gps data in the ACC so it slows down before curves. It is a setting that can be turned off.

Audi ACC is great, but the lane keep assist is quite "bouncy" and will ping-pong between left and right lane barriers and will self-disable after a few of these.

I think this is by design. My Subaru does this too. My feeling is that it’s an emergency feature meant to keep you on the road, not something you should rely on to steer the car completely, so they don’t want it to be too good. The quicker jerk back into lane is also enough to grab your attention, and bring it back to the wheel.

I'd rather err on the side of underselling it by calling it ACC than overselling it by calling it Auto Pilot. But I'm not in marketing so what do I know?

Cruise control has been doing this since forever as well.

As someone who heavily uses cruise control, and lives in an area with curves, it makes for unjoyed driving with patrons with adaptive cruise control, or non-cruisers.

I don't see the issue here. If the line is good enough for the lane detection to be expected to follow and you're not on bald Walmart tires in a rainstorm (in which case you probably should be driving manually) it'll work out fine.

The engineers that tested it undoubtedly turned it up to 11 and hauled ass around a track before dialing it back to a more "consumer friendly" setting.
