diverging, or multiple lane markings such as
in construction areas.
▷ When lane markings are covered in snow,
ice, dirt or water.
▷ In tight curves or on narrow lanes.
▷ When the lane markings are covered by objects.
▷ When driving very close to the vehicle in
front of you.
▷ When driving toward bright lights.

rearview mirror is fogged over, dirty or covered
with stickers, etc.
