CNN's Kelly Wallace has an issue with a report on lane keeping assistance. She wants to know why LCAS and speed control don't work together in the same car.

Kelly explains why the ranking emphasizes collaborative and driver monitoring features over automation, how critical these elements are to the safety of such systems, where her work ranking them will go from here, and much more.
