When it comes to driving, nothing matters more than your safety. At Gettel Automotive, we believe that you should feel confident behind the wheel, whether you’re running errands around town or taking a road trip through Florida in your Toyota. That’s why Toyota’s Safety Sense (TSS) technology is a game-changer. With this suite of advanced safety features, you’ll experience a new level of protection designed to keep you and your passengers safe on the road.
So, what is Toyota Safety Sense, and how does it make a difference? Let’s break it down.
Toyota Safety Sense is a suite of advanced safety technologies that come standard on many Toyota models. These systems work together to help prevent accidents and provide peace of mind during every drive. With features that actively monitor your surroundings and offer assistance when needed, Toyota Safety Sense is all about helping you drive with confidence.
Toyota Safety Sense offers a combination of driver assistance features designed to help prevent collisions and make driving easier. Here's a closer look at some of the standout features that are available:
This feature uses a combination of cameras and radar to detect a potential collision with a vehicle or a pedestrian in your path. If a collision is imminent, the system can warn you and, in certain cases, apply the brakes to reduce impact or avoid the accident altogether. It’s a safety net that’s always working to protect you and others around you.
Whether you’re driving on the highway or on local streets, Lane Departure Alert can help keep you from drifting out of your lane without signaling. If the system detects an unintended lane departure, it provides visual and audible alerts. If necessary, the system can also provide gentle steering assistance to help you stay in your lane.
Cruise control just got smarter. Toyota’s Dynamic Radar Cruise Control uses radar and cameras to monitor the distance between you and the vehicle ahead. If the system detects a slower-moving car, it will automatically adjust your speed to maintain a safe following distance. Once traffic clears, your vehicle will be brought back up to the preset speed.
Lane Tracing Assist works in tandem with Dynamic Radar Cruise Control to help keep you centered in your lane. If the system detects that you are drifting without signaling, it will provide small steering inputs to help you maintain proper lane position.
If you often drive at night, Automatic High Beams will be a welcome addition. The system detects oncoming traffic and vehicles ahead, automatically switching between high and low beams for optimal visibility. It makes nighttime driving safer and more convenient.
Road Sign Assist uses a camera to detect certain traffic signs, such as stop signs and speed limits, and displays them on your vehicle’s dashboard. This helps ensure you’re always aware of important road information while driving.
One of the best parts of Toyota Safety Sense is that it’s available on many of the brand’s vehicles – no need to pay extra for safety. Whether you’re driving a sedan, SUV, or pickup truck, you’ll find that Toyota has your safety covered with TSS.
Toyota Safety Sense offers a smarter, safer, and more enjoyable driving experience. With a variety of cutting-edge features designed to protect you and your passengers, Toyota gives you the peace of mind you deserve on every drive.
