Estimation of market penetration of the safety systems in new cars.
The market
penetration of these systems varies a lot between different car segments and also
between countries. It will also differ if the driver purchases a system on a voluntary
basis (“Without implementation support by insurance companies or government”) or if
insurance companies or legislation support the acquisition by benefit schemes or if
legislation forces the owner to buy it (“Implementation support”).
The level of market penetration or deployment is estimated in the following categories:
Very high
80 to 100%
•
High
50 to 80%
•
Medium
20 to 50%
•
Low
5 to 20%
•
Very low
0 to 5%
•
Systems with special benefits for older drivers.
Older drivers will have the same
benefit from these passive and active safety systems as other drivers or other road users.
There are also several products or systems which are especially useful for them as they
are aimed directly at the deficiencies of this older user group. Such systems are
improving:
Safety, vision and driver-system-interaction:
−
•
Tyres with flat running capability (available).
Night-vision systems. Available systems extend the range of vision at
night. Advanced versions provide object classification and can therefore
warn of relevant objects like pedestrians and cyclists.
−
Advanced front light (available; systems with extended functionality
under development).
−
Blind-spot detection (available; performance will be improved).
