Vauxhall Safety features
Most newer Vauxhalls have a number of beneficial safety features
Things like...
- Traffic sign recognition - this sign-detection system displays speed limits (and warns you if you're exceeding them), as well as other traffic signs - both permanent and temporary.
- Following distance indication - this system measures the distance to the car in front and lets you know via the central display how close you are (in seconds), warning you if you're driving too close.
- Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) is a smart safety system that automatically applies the car's brakes if the driver doesn't react quickly enough to a hazard ahead, the system can help avoid or mitigate potential collisions.
