How the exam will ask it

ಪ್ರಿಲಿಮ್ಸ್

  • ADAS stands for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems and relies on cameras, sensors, GPS and connectivity.
  • ADAS supports the driver with alerts and collision avoidance; the driver remains in control, unlike fully autonomous vehicles.
  • KSRTC is the state-owned road transport corporation of Karnataka.

ಮೇನ್ಸ್

GS Paper 2/3: Road safety is a governance and technology issue. Road accidents impose heavy human and economic costs; state transport undertakings adopting ADAS show technology-led safety measures in public transport. Way forward: scale up pilots after evaluating results, train drivers, enforce safety norms and integrate data from ADAS for accident analysis.
