US-headquartered 4319 Wabco has introduced what it says is the next step in advanced driver assistance systems with OnLane technology, a lane departure warning system (LDWS) for trucks and buses.

OnLane increases vehicle safety by providing the driver with visual and acoustic warnings or an optional seat-vibration warning, in case of unintentional lane departure, which is one of the most common causes of accidents involving commercial vehicles.
