Or tapping the brakes if it's safe to do so.
I tested out autosteer (AS) today on a slightly twisty part of road near my house (Coleman Road). Speed was set to 45MPH which I think is a little bit over the posted limit; I tend to drive about 5MPH over. The car handled the 5 turns fairly well except the last one where the left tires came pretty close to the concrete island separating the lanes. I didn't want to wait for AS to turn harder to the right so I yanked on the steering wheel. EAP performed quite well on SR 87 yesterday but those turns weren't as tight or sudden as on Coleman. Yes, I may have been going over the limit, and yes I may have chickened out too early, so I can't consider this test as a failure but it was impressive to see the car turning by itself.
