Driving mode - not in lane centre

When my car is self driving - it does not sit in the centre of the lane but tends to sit to the left of centre in the lane. Doesn't seem to matter if a car is in front or not.

Has anyone else noticed this? Perhaps something is out of alignment?

Yes - i have found the same thing here in the UK. Makes for an interesting ride when passing large lorries.

Mine stays in the center... but I have noticed when passing semi trucks, it likes to steer toward the truck as I am passing (but still stays in lane). Always quickens the pulse when that happens.

Garage List
When I use it, it feels like it's hugging one side more than the other, but when looking in the mirrors, it's exactly in the centre. I suppose I don't drive right in the centre normally.

I felt like mine self drove too far to the right... but I think I may just normally drive further to the left (the side i'm on) because I can judge distance/space better on my side.

So with the truck driving itself - centered - it feels further to the opposite side you sit on.
