There wasn&#8217;t much accumulation, but the roads were wet and visibility was reduced. I don&#8217;t like driving in those conditions, and neither did the app. It couldn&#8217;t determine accurately where the lanes were, so it gave me (according to the &#8220;end of drive&#8221; report) 35 warnings for drifting out of my lane. I can safely say that, apart from one warning that occurred when I was changing lanes, none of those were valid. Most of them occurred in a continual alternating right side\/left side warning sequence when I was on the off-ramp from the highway.
