Driving can be dangerous but with the new 2016 Chevy Impala LTZ the risk of being injured or fatally wounded may be reduced. Many individuals lose their lives to an auto accident that could have been avoided just by paying attention and staying focused on the road. No one is perfect and mistakes occur, but with new safety features, accidents may be avoided. Some of the safety features for the new 2016 Chevy Impala LTZ include:

• Airbags located in the front, rear and sides (6 total)
• 4 wheel ABS, 4 wheel disc brakes, and brake assist
• Daytime running headlights, adaptive cruise control, and traction control
• Lane departure alert and electronic stability control
• Rearview camera and blind-spot indicators

As long as your eyes are on the road and your hands are on the steering wheel your chances of having an auto accident are reduced. New vehicles are now being equipped with features that encourage your hands to be on the steering wheel at all times. For example, people use to have to reach for their radio to change a station but now the 2016 Chevy Impala steering wheel is manufactured to have the audio and volume buttons located on its sides near the 9 and 3 positions. Changing lanes can be dangerous especially when we forget to check our blind spots. New vehicles today have the ability to alert the driver if there is another automobile in the blind spot area, so you can safely make a lane change or turn. Driver fatigue is common and sometimes we fail to get enough rest before we drive, which can cause us to enter into another lane of traffic. Lane departure is a safety feature that alerts the driver that they are leaving the lane without a blinker and should pay attention immediately before an accident occurs. Sometimes we tend to follow one another too closely while traveling on the road, which can cause a rear-end accident. The Impala LTZ has sensors that scan the distance you are away from another car based on your speed. If you are too close the vehicle will warn you with a red flash across the driver side windshield and some vehicles are equipped to apply the brakes before the driver does.

With all these safety features and the great online defensive driving course from Comedy Driving, there are fewer accidents and more educated drivers.
