Mark Maaskant of the Road Safety Lab explains how the lane system works: “You can sometimes be distracted while driving, for example by the children in the back seat. And then it can happen that you stay within the lines a little less accurately. A lane assistant in your car watches over and then helps. In this mini-series we explain the different assistance systems. The following ADAS components are covered:
