Derham’s Alignment is proud to share the expansion of our services to include cutting-edge Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) solutions. Our Wilmington, NC team is dedicated to high-quality services that keep you safe on the road. With a majority of new cars having ADAS capabilities, w’re offering ADAS services to do just that.
What is ADAS?
Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) refers to a range of features that assist drivers in navigating roads more safely. These systems use sensors, cameras, radar, and other technologies to monitor a vehicle’s surroundings and provide real-time feedback to the driver. Common ADAS features include lane departure warnings, blind spot detections, and adaptive cruise control.
While these systems are incredible safety advancements, they require tedious attention by an expert if you get in an accident or replace certain car parts. Our Wilmington, NC team is now fully certified to bring these services to our lovely clients.
Some ADAS components you may be familiar with are lane departure warnings, adaptive cruise control, blindspot detection, and automatic emergency braking. Have you seen those videos of Teslas driving or parking themselves? Yep, that’s ADAS in action!
What are the benefits of ADAS?
- You won’t spend as much time in traffic. Wishful thinking or reality? ADAS can actually help the flow of traffic through sign recognition and predictive modeling. These features send drivers real-time info on road conditions, congestion, and alternate routes.
- Your fuel lasts longer. Thanks to adaptive cruise control (which automatically adjusts your car’s speed depending on traffic) and advanced navigation your mileage will go down, optimizing your fuel consumption!
- You’ll enjoy your drive more. With voice recognition, you can just tell your car to adjust the temperature, volume, and more. Adaptive headlights adjust themselves based on the driving conditions, preventing eye strain for drivers. If you’re one of those people who avoids parallel parking like the plague, you’d certainly benefit from parking assist. Your car’s cameras and sensors will help guide you into – and out of – tight spots.
- You’re less likely to get in an accident. This one might seem pretty obvious, but it’s one of the most important benefits. ADAS prevents human errors that cause car accidents. This is due to technologies such as blind spot detection, driver drowsiness detection, automatic emergency braking, and forward collision warning.
- You might actually save money. No, I’m not getting paid to say that. Some insurance companies actually reduce premiums for vehicles with ADAS features. This is because they prevent accidents and reduce collision severity. This also reduces costs for repairs.
