Etymology
'driver-friendly' originates from the combination of 'driver' and 'friendly', where 'driver' refers to a person who drives a vehicle, and 'friendly' means 'kind and pleasant'.
'driver' and 'friendly' have been used separately in English for centuries, but their combination into 'driver-friendly' is a modern development to describe products or environments that cater to drivers.
Initially, 'friendly' meant 'kind and pleasant', and this meaning has been extended to describe environments or products that are accommodating or easy to use.
