AS cars become more advanced, many car owners feel that advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) — which use technology to prevent crashes and make driving easier — should be built into every new car at no extra cost.
These systems were once found mainly in high-end European brands. For instance, Mercedes-Benz was among the first to introduce radar-based cruise control in the late 1990s. Today, these features are much more common, and the question is no longer whether ADAS works, but how quickly it can become a normal part of every new vehicle.
