active safety

Active safety refers to systems and features in a vehicle designed to prevent accidents before they happen. These include technologies such as anti-lock brakes, electronic stability control, traction control, and driver-assistance systems like adaptive cruise control and lane departure warnings. Active safety aims to enhance driver awareness and help maintain control of the vehicle, reducing the likelihood of crashes. Unlike passive safety features (like airbags or crumple zones) that protect occupants after a collision, active safety proactively works to prevent collisions, promoting safer driving environments for everyone.
