India Inaugurates First ADAS Test City Near Pune
India now has a special place, called ADAS Test City, to test smart car safety features like automatic brakes.
It is located near Pune and is designed to look like Indian roads, with things like three-wheelers, and various road conditions.
This will help car companies make sure these safety features work well.
Experts will test and improve the safety of cars here.
A special show to display these features is planned for December 12, 2025, involving many car brands.
This is important because many accidents happen because of driver mistakes.
