Experts of Avtoteka (Avito project), an online service for checking used cars, conducted a survey and found that most respondents regularly use electronic security systems. Car owners consider the blind spot monitoring system to be the most important, while the warning system for safely exiting the car was most often called superfluous. More than 5,000 residents of Russia who own a private car took part in the study.
Avtoteka's survey showed that 39% of respondents use electronic security systems on a daily basis. It is noteworthy that this figure is noticeably higher among men (44%) than among women (33%).
16% of car owners use electronic security systems several times a week, and 8% use them several times a month.
At the same time, only 16% of the drivers surveyed do not use these systems at all.
Also, almost half of the respondents (48%) noted that they had already encountered situations where electronic security systems helped them avoid an accident. Among young people (from 18 to 24 years old), this figure is higher than among other age groups.
