Ensure your vehicle’s safety with professional Advanced Driver Assistance System calibration from Colin R Edwards.
Modern vehicles rely on Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) to help keep you safe on the road.
If your vehicle has features such as lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, autonomous emergency braking or traffic sign recognition, these systems rely on precisely calibrated cameras, radar sensors and other equipment.
After certain repairs, these systems must be recalibrated to ensure they continue to operate accurately and safely.
At Colin R Edwards, we provide professional ADAS calibration using specialist equipment to manufacturer specifications.
What is ADAS Calibration?
ADAS stands for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems.
These electronic safety systems use cameras, radar sensors and other technology to monitor the road and assist the driver.
If a camera or sensor is moved—even by a few millimetres—it may no longer interpret road conditions correctly. Calibration restores these systems to their correct operating position after repairs or component replacement.
When is ADAS Calibration Needed?
ADAS calibration is commonly required after:
- Windscreen replacement
- Front-end accident repairs
- Suspension repairs
- Wheel alignment
- Steering component replacement
- Camera replacement
- Radar sensor replacement
- Vehicle geometry changes
Even routine repairs can affect the alignment of safety systems.
Which Safety Systems Require Calibration?
Depending on your vehicle, calibration may be required for:
- Driver Attention Monitoring
- Lane Keep Assist
- Lane Departure Warning
- Adaptive Cruise Control
- Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB)
- Traffic Sign Recognition
- Forward Collision Warning
- Blind Spot Monitoring
Why is ADAS Calibration Important?
Incorrectly calibrated ADAS systems may:
- Misjudge distances
- Detect hazards incorrectly
- Provide inaccurate lane positioning
- Reduce emergency braking performance
- Trigger unnecessary warnings
Proper calibration helps ensure your vehicle’s safety systems perform as the manufacturer intended.patible, simply contact us with your registration number.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need ADAS calibration after a windscreen replacement?
In many vehicles, yes. The forward-facing camera is often attached to the windscreen and usually requires recalibration after replacement.
Can I drive without calibration?
Your vehicle may still drive normally, but the safety systems may not perform as intended.
