Re: VW Trailer Assist
Ah, so the analogue of that is an autonomous car with a small person stuck under the dash doing it all for you?

Your 'standard' is how you drive alone, not how you drive during a test.

Re: VW Trailer Assist
That's funny. I wonder how they got the 'trailer' registered for road use? It doesn't look like it would pass a kit car inspection/test/mot.
Of course I had to then go and find out what Trailer Assist actually is. It's a development of park assist. So intended for all those who can't drive with a trailer/caravan.
The money spent on development they could have just installed a dummy button and given everyone who buys the system discount vouchers to stay in hotels/B&Bs!

Couldn't make sense of your timecode but I guess you mean this?

Re: VW Trailer Assist
Not sure whether this should be here or in the autonomous vehicle thread?

Re: VW Trailer Assist
Whoops - saw the mask then looked down at the time and subtracted 5 seconds. From the total run time . . .

It's not for those who can't drive with a trailer. It's for those who can't reverse with a trailer
ISTR that Range Rover have a similar offering
Re: VW Trailer Assist
Can anyone describe what trailer assist does?
