Problems solved by technology

Under the long waiting time in congestion, the driver is prone to fatigue driving due to long-term tension, or some traffic accidents such as rear-end collisions due to distraction. Make the driver irritable, and then easily lead to some unnecessary conflicts

[0003] At present, the automatic follow-up function can track the designated vehicle, but if the target vehicle disappears due to red lights or other factors, the driver needs to take over, and there will be frequent switching between automatic follow-up and manual driving, which makes driving difficult. The driver needs to frequently lock and change the follow-up target, which causes great inconvenience, and the automatic follow-up becomes not "automatic" at all.
