The phrase
"emergency brake" refers to a special lever or pedal in a vehicle that can be used to stop the car quickly in an emergency situation, such as if the regular brakes fail or if there's a need to stop suddenly.
Full definition
Electronic assistance comes from forward collision warning with autonomous
emergency braking with a blind spot monitor, lane departure warning and adaptive cruise control.
An optional Driving Assistance package adds forward - collision warning with pedestrian detection, low - speed automatic
emergency braking system, automatic high - beam headlights, and speed limit information.
Safety levels are high with standard items including
emergency brake assist, rearview camera, surround parking aid, trailer stability assist and rollover protection.
New safety features include
forward emergency braking with pedestrian detection, which is optional on less - expensive trim and equipment levels.
To score the full five points this year, cars must have a reversing camera and autonomous
emergency braking as standard across their full respective model walks.
Also, a brake assist function generates extra braking force to assist the driver
in emergency braking situations.
The C - MAX is fitted with anti-lock brakes, traction control, electronic stability control with
emergency braking assistance and six airbags as standard.
Adaptive cruise control, and automatic
city emergency braking are also standard, on top of front and rear parking sensors, automatic lights and wipers and adaptive LED headlights.
Other tech includes advanced safety features like adaptive cruise with queue assist and
intelligent emergency braking, reverse traffic detection and blind spot assist.
It provides autonomous
emergency braking when necessary if the system detects a forward collision is about to take place.
Available safety technology includes blind spot monitoring, lane departure warning, and forward collision avoidance with
auto emergency braking.
Use the hand brake or
emergency brake at hill parking, parallel parking, road side stops, and at the end of the road test.
The Q2 is equipped with the full complement of safety gear as standard -
active emergency braking with pedestrian detection and six airbags come standard on all models.
You can use the site to search for every measured part of the test, from whether the autonomous
emergency braking works to the danger to individual body parts for infant occupants.
Combining forward collision warning technology with automatic
emergency braking reduced rear - end collisions by 40 percent and injuries by 30 percent.
Therefore, the system did not slow the car, the forward collision warning system did not provide an alert, and the automatic
emergency braking did not activate.
You get automatic
emergency braking across the range - and it's capable of spotting not only cars but also pedestrians and large animals.
It can also intervene in the braking process and apply increased braking pressure according to the situation through to all -
out emergency braking, if required.
And there is, with autonomous
emergency braking going forwards and backwards, with grown - up cruise control, with advanced skid control and the list goes on.
This includes pedestrian and animal detection with
emergency brake activation in the city, collision avoidance with steering inputs, adaptive cruise control with lane keeping assist and parking assist.
Not all car accidents happen when you're inside the car —
sometimes emergency brakes can fail, and then cars can roll and smash into something, causing property damage or injury.
Although, the vehicle you use MUST have an
accessible emergency brake in between the front seats IF your vehicle has a full center console.
There is
emergency brake assist which increases brake pressure when you stand on the pedal (also activates hazard lights).
It's disappointing to see a family SUV launching into market without the inclusion of autonomous
emergency braking as a standard feature across the range.
The SEL adds built - in navigation, an auto - dimming rearview mirror, pedestrian detection for the forward
emergency braking system and adaptive cruise control.
It would be good to see the truck coming laden with features like low speed
automated emergency braking, lane keeps assist and forward collision alert.
