I also notice it does that. Same for auto-steer, especially on 2-lane / curvy roads.

But I think that's OK -- I tend to just take over if I feel its not reacting. Steering in particular is easy to take over from since my hands are on the wheel, and I just react. And "taking over" means just driving naturally. There's no big red button to push, I just drive and the car makes the disabling sound and I know I have control...
