VIDEO: Self-parking Lexus befuddles Automobile editors



Self-parking systems seem like a total waste of computing power IMHO, but Lexus maintains its Advanced Parking Guidance System allows a driver to parallel or back-in park the LS460 "with just a little brake work from the driver." Some very impatient staff over at Automobile Magazine put that claim to the test in this video, which shows three men first parking the Lexus LS460 on their own in the magazine's parking lot, and then again with the Advanced Parking Guidance System. We'll let you watch the video to see how the Three Stooges fair against the computer power of a Lexus, but one of the two almost manages to take out a minivan and a Ford Five-Hundred.

Thanks for the tip, Scott!
