Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) are technologies that assist drivers with the safe operation of a vehicle. Through a human-machine interface, ADAS increase car and road safety by detecting nearby obstacles or driver errors and responding accordingly. These systems use automated technology, such as sensors and cameras, to alert or assist drivers to prevent or mitigate crashes.

One has to wonder how many times thy were wrong and caused the accident?

Not often, because these things are so annoying they get turned off.

Too many false positives, and no-one can stand them

The loaner I drove last winter was a HUGE hazard on snow covered roads. It was constantly “correcting” my path, vibrating the wheel when IT lost sight of the lane, applied the brakes randomly, told me I was showing signs of fatigue, and all kinds of stupidity.

In other words, the “safety systems” WERE the biggest hazard.

This was a $70K car!

I had a rental car in Europe with all this crap on it. Truly frightening if you didn’t know what was going on. The engine shut off at stops. The auto correct steering would throw you all over the road. All the beeping and buzzing every time you turned. I hate all the crap. Especially in Europe where roads are narrow and tight.
