Yup, it's getting worse each model year. Guy at work has a new Ford (Focus?) that has the "Driver Assist" package. Has cameras by the rear-view mirror that detect if he is getting out of his lane. He changed lanes the other day without using his turn signal and it complained. As he drifted over, the steering wheel was fighting him. It kept getting worse and started shaking. It has even suggested that he pull over and have a cup of coffee. This is way too much intrusion into my life from a "car".
