This showed up on my dash the other day when I had to make a quick maneuver to avoid some road debris. Wonder if there is one that tells you to pull over and have a beer? ??

My reply to this message is “New driver who dis?”

Your truck thought you were nodding off behind the wheel?. did you log some decent drive time before the evasive actions? I’ve wondered if that’s something programmed as I’ve had some evasion situations and that only came up if there was atleast a hour of road time prior to the situation.. or if maybe it’s just the severity of driver input.

also that coffee could be Irish ☘ coffee ?

I actually had been on the road for a couple of hours when it happened.

That can be turned off using the inputs from the buttons on the left side of the steering wheel. I am not sure (can't recall) if time is adjustable.

You can avoid them by signaling when you cross a center line or shoulder line. The alert bot resets after short time, so you can wander over the center line a couple more times before it goes off again.
