Drivers remain skeptical about lane-centering systems, even though they are relatively confident in the performance of adaptive cruise control systems, according to recent research conducted by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
Some 62% of drivers with adaptive cruise control say they read or send texts while driving as compared with just 49% of drivers without adaptive cruise control, according to a new survey from State Farm.
Lane departure prevention systems that wait too long to initiate steering input or fail to prevent lane drifts greater than 35 centimeters may cause drivers to deactivate them, according to a new study from the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety.
The new ratings program would extend the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's work toward developing objective tools for evaluating adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping systems.
Ford will debut its standard driver-assist technology package, Co-Pilot360, on the 2019 Fusion mid-size sedan, which has been named Fleet Car of the Year six times since 2011.
Drivers who participated in an Insurance Institute of Highway Safety (IIHS) study said they are somewhat cautious about adaptive cruise control and active lane keeping features and prefer systems they believe make smooth, gradual movements.
Drivers with access to semi-autonomous features such as automatic braking or a lane keeping system say that they're significantly more distracted while driving than drivers without the technology, according to a new study.
To prevent unintentional lane departure, the technology uses data generated by a video camera sensor along with electrically powered steering to apply a short counter-steer torque.
DEARBORN, MI – Ford posted news on a couple of the technologies it’s offering on the 2012-MY Explorer, including its new MyKey “Do Not Disturb” technology and its new Lane Keeping System.
