Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) (EX and above)

What’s the Benefit?

The Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)¹¹ helps the engaged driver stay centered in a detected lane, providing a more confident driving experience on narrow roadways.

The Feature:

LKAS is designed to help keep a vehicle centered in a detected lane, applying mild steering torque if it determines the vehicle is drifting toward the side of the lane.

• The system, a part of the Honda Sensing™ suite of active driver-assistive technologies, uses a windshield-mounted camera to look for lane markers, and the Electric Power Steering (EPS) to help steer the vehicle.
• The system is able to identify Botts’ Dots and other lane markings, and works at speeds between 45 mph and 90 mph.
• If LKAS determines the vehicle is deviating from the center of a detected lane with no turn-signal activation by the driver, it will attempt to steer the vehicle back into the center of the lane.
• This can be especially useful when traveling on narrow roadways, such as carpool lanes.
• The LKAS system is not intended to take over driving or steering of the vehicle.
• Control of the vehicle remains the driver’s responsibility; drivers should always keep their hands on the wheel and eyes on the road.
