Reviewed on 29 Jul 2026
- A It only issues an audible warning, without acting
- ✓ It applies a slight steering correction to return to the lane
- C It stops the vehicle completely
- D It turns off the dashboard lights
Why this is the correct answer
Unlike LDW, which only warns, lane keeping assist goes a step further: it applies a slight steering correction (sometimes light braking) to bring the vehicle back to the lane centre.
