I appreciate that others are willing to beta test these new car features.

Indeed! For a base model car it’s pretty amazing. Now that I’m aware of this PID problem I just avoid it (but it’s still shamefully bad, Subaru…)

The rest of the features, however, make this the safest car I’ve driven so far. Adaptive cruise control, reverse automatic braking, and collision avoidance will make all cars safer.

I should write about it but the collision avoidance saved me from hitting a cyclist that flew out of a parking lot with a reaction time I wouldn’t be capable of.

Do you know for sure it is a PID? Error is center of car minus center of lane?

On public roads with other people who haven't consented to testing anything, no less.
