Title: Self guided system in cars
1Self Guided System In Cars
2Every day there is new technology for cars being
created.
3 Some cars even have a self guided system now.
4 Having worked at a dealership I got to
experience some of these features first hand.
5 I remember when we received the first vehicle
with lane assist at our dealership.
6 I had to test it out and see how it works.
7 I got on the highway and turned the lane assist
function on, then I let go of the steering wheel.
8 It was amazing the car self guided itself back
into the lane.
9 This technology is amazing if all cars had this
system, there would be fewer accidents.
10 Tired drivers trying to stay awake would have
enough time to get a safe place to pull over.
11 I have also heard some of the cars that came in
had a safe brake feature that would stop the car
automatically if something came too close to
hitting the vehicle.
12 I never had enough guts to test this feature
because it is just human nature to avoid anything
that might hurt us.
13Volvos Self Guided System
14Advancing towards cars that drive on their own,
Volvo Car Corp has tested its new S60 model,
which has the first in-car system that can sense
an imminent collision with pedestrians and brake
automatically if the driver doesn't.
15 The system is the latest in a line of
developments made possible by sophisticated
sensors based on cameras, radar and lasers.
16 The sensors already provide drivers with
adaptive cruise control, which alters a car's
speed to maintain a safe distance from the
vehicle in front, as well as technology such as
semi-autonomous parking systems.
17Other Manufacturers With A Self Guided System
18There are many other car manufacturers that have
started putting these systems in their cars.
19 I just mentioned Volvo because that was the one
I got to test drive at my dealership.
20 I know that Chevy, Jeep, and many more are
adding these features and trying to improve on
them every day.
21How To Use The Self Guided System
22If you have a self guided system in your car, you
should not solely rely on it to drive.
23 They are there as a safety measure.
24 They were not designed to drive the car fully.
25 The system was meant to make small adjustments
where it is sensing a mistake was made.
26 I am sure in the near future every new car made
will have these features offered if not set as a
standard.
