I think this has been happening since a lot of the assistive driving features started appearing. I know in my (rural) area a lot of people avoid cars with lane assistance because it can interfere with driving tighter and less well painted roads.

I always turn lane assist off because it is all false positives with no benefit. It isn’t needed becaus I’m paying attention while driving…

I drive newer cars occasionally as part of a carshare program since I don’t need one for a commute and I live somewhere in North America that transit actually functions.
I do appreciate anti-rear end features but it’s only activated once on a bridge since I’m usually leaving plenty of distance in front. But holy cow, the nagginess of some features can be beyond the level of your average backseat driver.
Yes car, I know I’m on the shoulder because it’s a mountain pass and tractor trailer’s are roaring down in the oncoming direction. Yes car, I see that the vehicle in front of me started moving, but I’m not going to follow them left turning into traffic because of it you bonehead…

No way to turn that crap off? Newest car I’ve ever owned is a 2011, had to rip out Onstar, but that was easy.
