Enhanced safety measures through driver assistance technologies are a driving force in the automobile industry. Many new cars are equipped with features such as forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, pedestrian detection, lane departure warning, lane keeping assist, blind spot warning, rear traffic warning and even parking assistance.

However, much as these technologies can help, they can’t replace you as a driver and don’t always work as expected in bad weather. To get the most out of these tools, consult the owner’s manual, the manufacturer’s website or canada.ca/driverassistance.
