Advanced Safety Feature- Adaptive Cruise Control

Among the recent advancements in car safety technologies, the adaptive cruise control feature is one of the most important and useful. It greatly minimizes the pressure of the driver as it helps to control the speed of the car and maintains a safe distance from other cars to avoid a crash. But still, this adaptive control should not be used in bad weather conditions and in tunnels as they might not work efficiently. So, if you want to know all about the adaptive cruise control system in your car, then give some time to watch the following slide show.

  1. Advanced Safety Feature: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL

  2. Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is an optional cruise control system that automatically adjusts the car's speed to maintain a safe distance from vehicles ahead.

  3. It is widely regarded as a key component in all future generations of intelligent cars.

  4. WHAT IT DOES?

  5. It automatically speeds up & slows down the car to keep a safe following distance relative to the car ahead, and also provides some breaking.

  6. Advanced versions can even slow & stop your car in traffic jams, and then accelerate for you.

  7. WHAT IT LAGS?

  8. The system provides braking up to a certain extent. That is, it does not function like original brakes do.

  9. ACC are not standardized, which means automakers have to decide on the distance to maintain from the vehicle in front of them.

  10. THE TECHNOLOGY BEHIND IT

  11. One or more sensors, including radar and computer-connected cameras, read the road ahead for traffic.

  12. They are capable of reading and responding to any car that is in front of you in your lane.

  13. WHAT THE USER NEEDS TO DO?

  14. Accelerate to set speed, then turn on the ACC, and feed the data regarding the distance gap you want to maintain in front & back of the car.

  15. The adaptive cruise control, then starts functioning according to the obstacles, it encounters on the road.

  16. In bad weather & other unsafe driving conditions, it is advised not to use ACC, and be aware of your surroundings.

  17. TIPS FOR USING

  18. ACC will not work if dirt, snow, or ice covers the sensors; or when the roadways are slippery, and also not in tunnels.

  19. ACC allows you to spend less energy maintaining your following distance against the cars in front of you.

  20. You can use this opportunity to pay more attention to the traffic mix, including cars ahead of you and in adjacent lanes.

  21. Check your owner's manual to see if your ACC is capable of slowing your car to a stop, or if you need to stop on your own.
