April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month, designed to raise awareness of the dangers of distracted driving. Many Land Rover safety features help to keep you alert behind the wheel. Land Rover Northfield highlights some of the advanced features that can prevent distracted driving.
Adaptive Cruise Control
Adaptive Cruise Control provides the convenience of cruise control by keeping you at your preferred speed. However, it goes a step further by using lasers, cameras, and radar to ensure you also stay your preferred distance from other traffic. If you get too close, it can automatically adjust your speed.
Lane Keep Assist
With Lane Keep Assist, your Land Rover SUV can also sense if you’re unintentionally drifting from your lane. If you start to drift from your lane, it will alert you. If you don’t respond, it can gently correct your steering to get you back safely within your lane markings.
Emergency Braking
Unfortunately, when you aren’t paying attention, your reaction times aren’t always quick enough. The Emergency Braking feature can detect when a collision is imminent. If it senses that you can’t respond in time, your brakes are automatically applied to help you avoid an accident.
Rear Traffic Monitor
The Rear Traffic Monitor is available to keep you protected as you reverse. It can sense if there are vehicles or people crossing behind you when you attempt to back up. If it senses anything in your path, it will give you visual and audible alerts.
