Theory Hub UK Theory Test

Your pupil would like to try using the lane-keep assist feature in your vehicle. Where would be a good place to take them?

Why this is the answer

The lane-keep assist feature is mostly designed for dual carriageways and motorways. If the paint is faded, or if weather conditions prevent the camera from seeing road markings clearly, it will not work properly.

Why the other answers don't fit

A
A road with faded road markings — Faded markings are exactly what the system cannot read.
C
A road with sharp bends — Sharp bends are where lane-keep assist is least predictable.
D
A single carriageway — A single carriageway has oncoming traffic and less consistent markings.

Where this question comes from

The question, its options and the explanation are reproduced word for word from the DVSA revision question bank under licence. The licence requires them to appear unaltered, so we cannot reword them and neither can anyone else — that is why you will meet the same wording on other sites. Everything else on this page is written by Theory Hub: the explanation of why each wrong answer is wrong, the topic guide and the revision notes.
