1. A vehicle system, comprising:
at least one of (a) an advanced driving system configured to aid a driver of a vehicle in performance of at least one driving maneuver based on input from at least one of a sensor and a camera and (b) an advanced driving feature;
a usage module configured to:
when the at least one of (a) the advanced driving system and (b) the advanced driving feature is off, determine whether the at least one of (a) the advanced driving system and (b) the advanced driving feature could be on and used based on all of:
at least one present vehicle operating parameter;
at least one present road parameter;
at least one present traffic parameter; and
at least one present environmental parameter; and
when the at least one of (a) the advanced driving system and (b) the advanced driving feature could be on and used, at least one of:
display, on a display within a passenger cabin of the vehicle, a visual indicator that the at least one of (a) the advanced driving system and (b) the advanced driving feature could be turned on and used; and
output, via at least one speaker, an audible indicator that the at least one of (a) the advanced driving system and (b) the advanced driving feature could be turned on and used; and
a score module configured to determine a score value for a first period based on:
a second period that the at least one of (a) the advanced driving system and (b) the advanced driving feature was on and used during the first period; and
a third period during the first period that the at least one of (a) the advanced driving system and (b) the advanced driving feature could have been on and used during the first period,
wherein the score module is configured to determine the score value based on or using the equation:

OG Complex Work Unit Math
where Score is the score value, N is an integer equal to the number of advanced driving systems and features, % TDASONi*a&ui is a percentage of time that the advanced driving system or feature was on and being used by the driver during the trip relative to a total period that the advanced driving system or feature could have been on and used by the driver during the trip, % cleani is the percentage of the sensors/cameras used by the advanced driving system or feature that were clean during the trip relative to a total number of the sensors/cameras used by the advanced driving system or feature, ReductionONi corresponds to a reduction rate of collisions/damage if advanced driving system or feature is on, % TDASOFFi is a percentage of time that the advanced driving system or feature was off during the trip relative to a total period that the advanced driving system or feature should have been off during the trip, and IncreaseOFFi corresponds to an increase rate of collisions/damage if the advanced driving system or feature is off.
