1. Anti-lock Braking System (ABS): ABS prevents the wheels from locking up during panic braking, allowing the driver to steer while maintaining control of the vehicle.
2. Electronic Stability Control (ESC): ESC uses sensors to detect and prevent loss of control by individually braking the wheels and reducing engine power to help the driver maintain control in emergency maneuvers.
3. Forward Collision Warning (FCW) and Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB): FCW alerts the driver of an impending collision, while AEB automatically applies the brakes to mitigate or avoid a collision.
4. Lane Departure Warning (LDW) and Lane Keeping Assist (LKA): LDW alerts the driver when the vehicle drifts out of its lane, while LKA gently steers the vehicle back into the correct lane.
5. Blind Spot Detection (BSD) and Rear-View Cameras: BSD warns the driver of vehicles in their blind spot, enhancing safety during lane changes. Rear-view cameras improve visibility while reversing, reducing the risk of accidents.
6. Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC): ACC maintains a set speed and distance from the vehicle ahead, automatically adjusting the speed to match traffic conditions.
7. Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS): TPMS alerts the driver when tire pressure is low, reducing the risk of tire failure and accidents.
8. Advanced Airbag Systems: Modern vehicles feature advanced airbag systems with multiple airbags and sensors that optimize deployment based on crash severity and occupant positions.
9. Pre-Collision Assist with Pedestrian Detection: This system uses sensors and cameras to detect pedestrians and warns the driver or automatically applies the brakes to prevent or mitigate collisions with pedestrians.
10. Intelligent Headlights: These headlights adjust their intensity and direction based on various factors such as speed, steering input, and traffic conditions, providing optimal illumination without blinding other drivers.
Note: The advancements listed above are not ranked in any specific order and may vary based on individual preferences and vehicle models.
