3. Blind Spot Warning

Blind spot warning systems use radar or cameras to monitor the blind spot on a vehicle. When a vehicle enters the blind spot a light will illuminate in the instrument panel of the vehicle, altering the driver of the vehicle’s presence. Should the driver not notice the light and attempt to change lanes, the system will let out an audible warning to deter the driver from completing the action. This system should be used in conjunction with proper driving procedures, as relying solely on this system can lead to accidents in the event the system malfunctions. Usually only available in luxury cars, the blind spot warning system is becoming more common in vehicles. It’s only a matter of time before it becomes a standard.
