Top- 8 Safety Features In Modern Cars You Need To Know Before Buying

1. Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)

ABS, standard in modern vehicles, prevents wheel lock-up during emergency braking, allowing the driver to maintain steering control and achieve shorter stopping distances.

2. Electronic Stability Control (ESC)

ESC detects and corrects loss of control by selectively braking individual wheels and adjusting engine power, helping the vehicle stay on its intended path and reducing the risk of skidding.

3. Airbags

Airbags deploy rapidly in a collision to cushion occupants from hard surfaces, significantly reducing impact forces on the head, chest, and other body parts, thereby lowering the risk of severe injuries.

4. Seat Belts

Seat belts secure occupants in their seats, preventing ejection during a crash.

5. Reinforced Structures

Vehicles are designed with crumple zones that absorb and dissipate collision energy, protecting passengers by minimizing cabin intrusion and preserving structural integrity during an impact.

6. Rear Parking Sensors/Camera

Rear parking sensors or cameras assist in safe maneuvering by alerting the driver to obstacles behind the vehicle, reducing the likelihood of accidental collisions.

7. Hill Start Assist (HSA)

HSA prevents the vehicle from rolling backward on inclines by holding the brakes temporarily, giving the driver time to switch from the brake to the accelerator.

8.ISOFIX Child Seat Anchors

ISOFIX anchors provide a standardized, secure method for installing child seats, ensuring proper attachment and reducing the risk of incorrect installation for enhanced child safety.
