ProPILOT Assist combines steering support with Nissan’s adaptive cruise control system (called Intelligent ...

Subaru first introduced a camera-based driver monitoring system designed to operate outside of partial automation to continually check for signs of both distraction and drowsiness on the 2019 model

There has been little research on how these drivers use ADAS, as most only have access to these systems in their parents’ vehicles when learning to drive because teens tend to drive older, less expensive vehicles when driving independently. This study examined ...
Results: As expected, respondents who purchased new vehicles had consistently more trust, awareness, and understanding of the systems relative to respondents who bought used. Results suggest that the perceived importance of ADAS early in the buying experience and a good explanation of the technology from the seller to the buyer may help reduce these differences. However, knowledge and ...
