May 13: A recent report has found that a large share of Indian motorists view Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) as a meaningful step forward for road safety, reflecting growing confidence in in-car safety technology.
The study shows that about 70% of drivers believe features like lane departure warning, automatic emergency braking, and collision alerts help reduce accident risks and make driving more secure and less stressful.
The findings point to increasing awareness of modern vehicle safety systems, especially in urban areas where newer cars with advanced features are becoming more common. Many drivers say these tools add an extra layer of protection during everyday driving.
At the same time, the report highlights a need for better understanding of how ADAS works. Experts caution that these systems are meant to support drivers rather than replace attention behind the wheel, and safe driving habits remain essential.
Overall, the report indicates a gradual but clear shift in how Indian consumers perceive vehicle safety technology, with growing acceptance of driver-assistance features as part of modern mobility.
