Hondas are well-known as extremely safe and reliable vehicles. When you switch on the engine of a Honda today, you have more sophisticated car safety features protecting you than ever before. The following are six excellent examples, all of which you can see more of with a test drive at your local Honda dealership.
Collision Mitigating Braking System
Your Honda uses a forward-facing camera and radar transmitter to monitor the road ahead and detect any potential collision threat. When a collision risk is identified, you’re warned in three ways: visually, audibly, and sometimes with a slight tug on your seatbelt.
If your car judges that you haven’t responded in time, it will apply strong braking to avoid or reduce the impact. In some models, it will even tighten your seatbelt just before a potential collision.
Road Departure Mitigation System
Any number of factors might cause you to accidentally wander toward another lane or the edge of the road. The Road Departure Mitigation System constantly monitors the lane markers. It detects any unintentional drifting and promptly steers you back safely into the center of the lane.
Adaptive Cruise Control
Your Honda takes a great deal out of the stress of driving with Adaptive Cruise Control, which keeps your car automatically following the road while maintaining a predetermined distance from the cars ahead. This feature allows you to relax with your hands off the wheel, so you can arrive refreshed at your destination. And it’s particularly helpful for disabled drivers.
Low Speed Follow
Adaptive Cruise Control is further improved by Low-Speed Follow, which allows your car to automatically stay at safe distances behind other vehicles even at very low speeds and in slow-moving traffic jams. When your car slows to a halt in traffic, a light tap on the throttle will reactivate Adaptive Cruise Control and start you up again.
Traffic Sign Recognition System
With a modern Honda, you’re far less likely to ever receive a speeding ticket because you failed to notice a speed sign. The external camera on your car reads all recognizable traffic signs and displays them clearly on your dashboard display.
Blind Spot Information System
The risks inherent in making turns when a cyclist or motorcyclist may be in your blind spot are greatly reduced by the Blind Spot Mitigation System. Your car keeps a constant eye on your blind spots at all times and alerts you clearly whenever another vehicle enters these zones of reduced visibility.
Ask for a Demo at Your Local Honda Dealer
You can learn all about these top-notch safety and driver-assist features at your local dealership. Pay a visit and ask for a demo of everything a modern Honda has to offer in terms of safety and security. The staff will be happy to oblige.
