adas effectiveness

Real-world safety benefit of advanced driver assistance features: whether AEB, lane-keeping, blind-spot warning, forward-collision warning, and similar systems actually reduce crashes, injuries, or insurance claims. Concerns measured efficacy and outcome evaluation of ADAS, NOT the SAE-level taxonomy of combined automation (l2_supervised) or how well a driver trusts a system (trust_calibration).
