Die „Sicherheits“ -Blänen Ihres Autos können tatsächlich sicheres Fahren beeinträchtigen | Die Studie hat gezeigt, dass die Verwendung von ihnen auch das Treiberverhalten verändert und dass die Änderung oft schlechter ist.

From the article: Most modern cars offer Advanced Driving Assistance Systems (ADAS) that work hard to keep drivers safe. For example, the Lane Departure Warning on my 2023 SUV sounds an alarm if, intentionally or not, I drift laterally across a white line. It’s designed to prevent my veering off course from distraction or sleepiness.
Research has established that such systems do prevent crashes. Nevertheless, some drivers find their winks and prods irritating and often unnecessary. Recently, a carefully constructed study has shown that use of them also modifies driver behavior and that the change is often for the worse.
[The study](https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/10591478251336742), by researchers at universities in the United States and Hong Kong, drew its data from telematics collected in the US by a major, and unnamed, car maker. The telematics data, whose widespread collection by manufacturers has spurred efforts to protect driver privacy, provided information on vehicle performance, such as speed and acceleration, and vehicle trips, such as when and where vehicles were running.
The data also offered, in aggregate, details on driver attributes such as age, gender, and income level. By tracking the ages of the cars in the study, the researchers could also see how driver behavior changed over time.
The authors set out to distinguish effects on drivers from two kinds of ADAS: those that demand immediate corrective action and those that are merely informative. They predicted that drivers using only the demanding alerts would operate their vehicles less carefully than they might have without them while those using only the informative alerts would drive more carefully. And this turned out to be so.
I think people have figured this out, and have begun parking backwards, to avoid needing to back up into traffic.
Anecdotally, I’m inclined to believe this.
Recent the parking sensors on my car stopped working and I realized just how much of a crutch they have become for me.
I just got a new 2025 Taos. Every car I’ve had before now was old enough to still be mostly mechanical – the last one was a 2016 Golf with a standard transmission, for example.
The loud dings, chirps, and alarming half-display warning lights that come on all the freaking time now are so distracting and infuriating. IMO they’re much more dangerous than before because now, instead of watching the action on the road, my attention is pulled to the dashboard where I have to decode what it’s freaking out about instead of responding to traffic. I hate it. I turned off the lane assist feature because it thought shoulder gravel was a lane and started bumping me around. Why anyone thought that was a good idea blows my mind . I like the new car, but I’m actually starting to regret getting it. I kinda want my old car back, despite that it was starting to need more repairs.
I hate that there are so many „safety features“ forced in there that really just make me a worse driver. In fact it almost seems like the less driving skill you have the better the new cars are for you, but if you actually know how to drive, control your own vehicle, and are aware of your surroundings to begin with you’re punished for it. So yeah, I believe that overall they improve road stats, but I wish I could turn most of them off entirely. I do appreciate the adaptive cruise control, though. That one makes sense.
When my car thinks I’m not paying attention to the road, it beeps and blinks a display on my instrument panel telling me to take a break. It’s very distracting.
I felt this already. I turned them off immediately.
My wife got confused by all the beeps and warnings while backing up our Tesla in the driveway. She ended to rear ending our garage door and ruining it.
