Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) are safety features in modern cars that help make driving safer and easier. Think of ADAS as a set of extra “eyes” and “hands” that help you drive. These systems use cameras, sensors, and radar to watch the road and help you avoid accidents. Some common ADAS features include:

  • Forward Collision Warning: Warns you if you're about to crash into something in front of you.

  • Automatic Emergency Braking: Automatically stops your car if you don't react quickly enough to avoid a crash.

  • Lane Departure Warning: Lets you know if you start to drift out of your lane on the road.

  • Adaptive Cruise Control: Keeps your car at a safe distance from the car in front of you by automatically adjusting your speed.

  • Blind Spot Monitoring: Alerts you when there's a car in your blind spot.

WHAT IS ADAS?

Why is ADAS Important?

​

ADAS makes driving safer and less stressful by:

​

  1. Preventing Accidents: These features can help you avoid crashes by warning you about dangers or even taking action to prevent an accident.                        

  2. Making Driving Easier: ADAS can handle some of the hard work of driving, like keeping you in your lane or maintaining a safe distance from other cars, so you can focus on the road.               

  3. Saving Money: Because ADAS makes driving safer, it can also help lower your car insurance costs.                                                         

  4. Staying Up-to-Date: Cars with ADAS are equipped with the latest technology, keeping you safer and more in line with modern safety standards.

After a Crash:

If you’ve been in an accident, even a small one, your car's sensors might get knocked out of place and need adjustment.

After Replacing the Windshield:

If you get a new windshield, the cameras that look through it might need to be recalibrated to work correctly.

After Tire Alignment:

Big changes to your car’s alignment or tire size can throw off the ADAS system, so it’s important to get it checked.

If You Replace a Sensor or Camera:

Anytime a sensor or camera is replaced, it needs to be recalibrated to make sure it works right.

When Does Your Car Need ADAS Calibration?

Calibration is just a fancy word for making sure everything is set up correctly. ADAS needs to be calibrated (adjusted) so that it works properly. Here are some times when you might need to get your ADAS calibrated:
