I have the lane departure alert on my ES350. I noticed that every once in awhile it vibrated for no reason. I found out that the alert is activated by some type of metallic (?) substance that is sprayed with the paint to create the lane markers. What ended up happening to cause this was that the paving crew scarified the pavement at that location and those particles were moved around and therefore set off the alert. According to my Lexus rep, road construction crews are now aware of this and it SHOULDN'T (?) happen again. Only in Canada? possibly
