The effectiveness of lane departure warning systems - a reduction in real-world passenger car injury crashes.

Conclusions LDW/LKA systems were estimated to lower the driver injury risk in crash types that the systems are designed to prevent, i.e. head-on and single vehicle crashes. While these are important findings, they were based on a small dataset. Therefore, further research is desirable to evaluate the effectiveness of LDW/LKA systems under real-world conditions, and to differentiate the effectiveness between technical solutions (i.e. LDW and LKA) proposed by different manufacturers.
