I don't expect the car to do full defensive driving, but to call something AP and not regular lane keep assist I'd expect the car to process the content of the adjacent lane. AP is really overhyped.I haven't experienced AP adjusting based on traffic in the other lane hugging one side of their lane. Now AP should react if the car invades your lane, but obviously still be ready to take over if it doesn't.
AP doesn't care about blind spot avoidance of other vehicles. All it cares is the speed you set, whether it can maintain that speed plus maintain the follow distance of any vehicles ahead of you in your lane that you set( it will prioritize follow distance than speed), etc. So if you set 65 MPH and can maintain 65 MPH due to no one ahead of you in your lane, if it happens to put you in someones blind spot in the lanes next you, it happens to put you in their blind spot. Again if that vehicle invades your lane, it should react by slowing and/or turning away from the vehicle. But I don't think it is capable to determine if your present position puts you in a vehicles blind spot and avoid it.
Not sure if any system is capable of that yet, but who knows. This area is not something that interests me too much when it comes to cars.
