(Reuters) – A group of stakeholders in the U.S. auto industry urged automakers to adopt standarized names for Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) technology from a list they released on Wednesday, seeking to reduce confusion among consumers.
The list of names, drawn up by roadside assistance provider American Automobile Association (AAA), influential U.S. magazine Consumer Reports, auto industry consultant J.D. Power and the National Safety Council, also looks to ensure drivers are aware these systems are designed to assist and not replace an engaged driver.
