Our Collision Warning Indicators page had grown to be far too cumbersome for easy navigation. To help ease the page’s congestion, we separated Emergency Steering Indicators (right) and gave them their own page.
We had already made separate pages for Rear and Side Collision indicators to facilitate this change. We have also been slowly adding vehicle make and model to symbol variation to help driver’s discover the proper symbol.
The Collision Warning Indicators page is here. It includes links at the bottom to the indicators that have been moved.
And we will continue to find ways to clean up the page’s navigation.
Note that the page begins with an announcement made in 2022 that AAA, Consumer Reports, J.D. Power, National Safety Council, PAVE, and SAE came together to develop the standardized naming conventions for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) technologies.
Naming may have been addressed but the growth of indicators has not abated.
