Talk:Lane change assistance

weird redirect from lane change assistance to Vehicle blind spot


The redirect to Vehicle blind spot is weird.

First of all, blind spot page does not deal with Blind Spot Information System nor with lane change but deals with other topics such as mirrors, boats and planes.

To match other available lane change assistance definitions, which are not limited to blind spot and encompass a broader concept:
 * "There are two main types of Lane Change Assistant systems: one that still leaves the driver in control of steering and braking, and one called Active Lane Change Assist, where the car is already automating steering and speed, and following distance and then the driver indicates a lane change and the vehicle uses sensors to change lanes on its own."

 * "Lane Change Assistants [4] are already established techniques in passenger cars for a long time. The detection of vehicles on the neighboring lane occur depending on the manufacturer approach using radar sensors (24 GHz or 77 GHz), cameras or laser scanners. (...) There are also active systems, which alert not only the driver, but also actively intervene in the steering of the vehicle."

- ADVANCED DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS FOR MOTORCYCLES: CONCEPT OF A LANE CHANGE ASSIST, www-esv.nhtsa.dot.gov

This is reflected by UNECE regulations:
 * For Advanced driver-assistance system:
 * both existing regulation 79 and future DCAS regulation, define Lane Change Procedure and Lane Change Manoeuvre concepts
 * future DCAS regulation has specific requirements for driver-initiated lane change assistance
 * For automated vehicles:
 * The amendment 01 of regulation UN R157 enables lane changes through the Automated Lane Keeping System (ALKS) ...

This concept also address motorcycles: "Lane Change Assist system developed for motorcycles to address crashes caused by lane changes."

The redirect is weird, so would prefer: Lane change assistance might refer to:
 * Vehicle blind spot lane change assistance systems use sensors to monitor the blind spots and issue a warning signals in the exterior mirrors
 * advanced driver-assistance system lane change assistance might assist in Lane Change Procedure and Lane Change Manoeuvre
 * self-driving car lane change assistance might automate the lane change

An alternative could be to create a short dedicated lane change assistance page to explain those things, (after all, there is yet Changing Lanes and Changing Lanes (TV series) pages...) 86.67.202.2 (talk) 00:29, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
