Will the car align itself correctly with the curb, but keep on reversing until it detects another car or obstruction behind it? Just wondering how this system will work and how practical it really would be in everyday use. Cool technology though ![Thumb Up](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
