That the Active Lane Keep Assist Matic Tronic Plus on my Merc Actively Tries to Murder Bicyclists when I swerve slightly to give them more room while driving past them.

To the bicyclist whom I must have just terrified:

I'm sorry, that wasn't me. That was my car deciding you don't need to live anymore.

This made me laugh embarrassingly hard at work.

I'm sure it made that poor guy poop his pants embarrassingly hard on his bicycle.

Ah yes, the good old, murderous ALKAMTP. Always up to something, that ALKAMTP, always up to something.

Hail satan...or death to cyclists...or some other Clarksonian thing.

For my learning - how does this feature behave? So if you swerve to avoid something (i.e.: cyclist, pothole, etc.), does the car - of its own - guide the car back into the lane? I'm assuming one can turn off this feature (?).

This feature is working as intended.
