Has anyone driven the new "Lane Centering" from Ford on a highway? I know we have had back and forth about the comparisons of that and Tesla Autopilot, and frankly the Lane Centering was better than I thought it was going to be (in spec). One thing I did notice this week on my Tesla is the base Autopilot actually handles on/off ramps intelligently. This is without Full Self Driving, just the included Autopilot.
What I mean by Intelligent is it will adjust the speed accordingly. So for instance, there is a 65 MPH West Bound Highway that has a 270 Degree corkscrew ramp that connects to a southbound 60 mph highway. If I'm in the correct lane and have auto pilot set at 70 mph, it will adjust the speed gently. As I approach the ramp, it kicks it down to 55, then it will shortly after kick it down to 50, then right before the turn starts, it drops to 45, then as it approaches the sharp part of the turn it drops to 35, then as it comes out of the turn it goes, 45, then 55, then 65 (i have it set to 5+ mph of speed limit). It does this all while taking the corkscrew dead center in the lane. Other ramps do the same thing even though, that is the most pronounced example of it.
Has anyone tried something like this with Ford Lane Centering? It would be cool if it was capable of it.
