The safety hump?

Usage of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) is growing. Features such as anti-lock brakes and electronic stability control are used and understood. More advanced features are being introduced. ADAS features are expected to become increasingly common. Though these features are designed to increase safety on the road, there is concern that this may not be the case. The complexity of ADAS features is believed to result in driver distraction. Drivers who have no previous experience with ADAS will be unfamiliar with how to use the technology. It may be necessary to introduce formal training in the use of ADAS in automobiles.
