What is the occasional beeping sound from the Camry?

It is the lane departure warning. Here are the specific details about the Camry: 1. Model: The Camry is a mid-size sedan with a body size of 4885mm in length, 1840mm in width, and 1455mm in height, a wheelbase of 2825mm, a body weight of 1530kg, and a minimum ground clearance of 145mm. 2. Powertrain: The Camry features a MacPherson strut front suspension and an E-type multi-link rear suspension. It is equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 178ps, a maximum torque of 210Nm, and a maximum power of 131kW, paired with a 10-speed continuously variable transmission.
I've been driving a Camry for five years and have occasionally encountered beeping sounds. These are usually vehicle warning tones: the most common is when the seatbelt isn't fastened properly, the system beeps every few seconds as a reminder until it's secured; it also beeps if a door isn't closed tightly, especially on rainy days when the rubber seals are damp; if the handbrake isn't fully released, it triggers an alarm, particularly common after starting on a slope. Once, I thought it was a malfunction, but it turned out a package on the back seat was pressing on the seatbelt buckle, causing a false alarm. Occasionally, it might be the radar detecting an obstacle while reversing, or the tire pressure monitoring system detecting an anomaly in one of the tires, with the dashboard lighting up simultaneously as a warning. I recommend checking these common scenarios first; if the issue persists, then visit a shop to read the fault codes.
