Default Ford Lane Keeping System

A recent study by the Automobile Association of America discovered that 32 percent of drivers questioned admitted to driving at some time when they were so exhausted it was hard work to keep their eyes open. A report from 2010 found that 16.5 percent of all traffic deaths resulted from driver sleepiness. Ford is launching a brand new technology that it hopes will reduce these disturbing figures.

Drivers who are already tired and sleepy should drive carefully. Recently a survey by the Automobile Association of America estimated that 32 percent of drivers have driven when they were too exhausted to keep their eyes open. A previous study estimates that 16.5 percent of deadly accidents are the result of tired drivers. A new security system from Ford hopes to deal with these surprising figures.
