Volvo develops pedestrian wide-awake system
December 14, 2009 · Print This Article
Volvo is the one name that most citizens would remember for making safe cars, and we're eternally grateful that they did not hold back their patent for rear seat belts which has helped save many lives by the decades. Well, the Scandanavian company is at the forefront of safety yet again with the Volvo S60 offering a new pedestrian heads up system to further reduce unwanted accidents on the road which is caused by a moment of carelessness or unexpected movement. The Collision Warning with Full Auto Brake feature is capable of detecting
pedestrians in front of the vehicle, applying the brakes automatically whether the driver does not react fast decent. Needless to say, that works best when you're going at speeds of less than 20kmh. Anyone ready to buy a Volvo now?Permalink: Volvo develops pedestrian ready system from Ubergizmo | Hot: Nokia Booklet 3G Review
