Some common ADAS/ADS technologies include automatic emergency braking (AEB), lane centering assist (LCA), lane keep assist (LKA), forward collision warning (FCW), lane departure warning (LDW), adaptive cruise control (ACC), and blind spot warning (BSW). Please answer the following questions based on your opinions and any past experiences with ADAS/ADS technology. To answer, check only one box for each statement that best expresses your answer (unless indicated otherwise).
Indicate which of the following ADAS technologies you have heard of (select all that apply)
