An Overview of Toyota Safety Sense-P

Nov 22, 2017

Shopping for a new car can be overwhelming, but choosing a model from Toyota is always a safe and smart choice. Toyota now offers Safety Sense-P, a package with impressive safety features, as standard on many of its vehicles. Check out the included features to see how this package is changing the way people drive.

Lane Departure Alert

When you’re on a clearly marked road, lane departure warning will give you an alert if your vehicle unintentionally crosses the lane marking. This reminder keeps you in your lane and can prevent sideswipe accidents.

Dynamic Radar Cruise Control

Another included feature is dynamic radar cruise control, an innovative system that maintains a set speed. It uses a camera and radar detection to monitor other vehicles on the road and slow the car down automatically without disengaging cruise control.

Pre-Collision System

The pre-collision system within Toyota Safety Sense-P is designed to detect both vehicles and pedestrians, slowing the car down automatically to lessen the chance of an accident. If you don’t realize that cars in front of you are slowing down or stopped, the system will hit the brakes immediately.

Automatic High Beams

Automatic high-beam control makes it easier to see the road ahead when you’re driving in the dark. Traditional high beams are turned on and off manually, but you always have to turn them off when a car approaches to prevent the bright lights from bothering the other driver. This feature uses an in-vehicle camera to sense headlights of oncoming cars and lower the high beams to regular lighting until the car passes, and then turn them back up.
