COLOGNE, Germany – Ford’s BlueCruise hands-free advanced driver assistance system has been grabbing headlines all over Europe, but what do the public think of this cutting-edge tech?
@Ford went to a special Mustang Day Party at the British Motor Museum at the weekend, where guests got to drive Mustang Mach E’s and experience BlueCruise for themselves on the M40 motorway – part of a network of pre-mapped motorways in England, Scotland and Wales, designated as Blue Zones
BlueCruise takes the comfort and convenience benefits of advanced driver assistance to the next level. The system monitors road markings, speed signs and evolving traffic conditions to control steering, acceleration, braking and lane positioning, as well as to maintain safe and consistent distances to vehicles ahead – right down to a complete halt in traffic jams.
In addition, sophisticated infrared camera technology continually checks driver attentiveness for safety and confidence.
