The 411 on Honda’s New Safety System, Honda Sensing

The new Honda Sensing driver-assistive system is a big step forward in Honda’s quest to make the road safer for all drivers. This technology was developed to extend a driver’s senses and give them greater awareness. It goes a long way to fill in our natural blind spots on the road, detecting hazards and problems we might otherwise miss.

Our team at Asheboro Honda has put together an overview of what you need to know about Honda Sensing. We’ve also put together a list of new models available with the safety suite from our dealership.

Safety Comes First With Honda Sensing at Asheboro Honda

Honda Sensing arms your car with a suite of digital safety software that promotes defensive driving and awareness on the road. You can get a better idea of how Honda Sensing works when you look through the feature list below.

The Technology

• Lane Departure Warning (LDW) gives warning signals when a driver is drifting into another lane without using their turn signals.

• Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) helps keep fatigued or distracted drivers in their lane by automatically adjusting steering when the vehicle is leaving the center of a lane.

• Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) keeps cars traveling at speeds between 45 and 90 mph from drifting off the road. The system vibrates to alert the driver, automatically steers to correct the drift, and brakes if necessary.

• Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) lets drivers set a following distance interval on the highway. The car automatically adjusts its speed based on cars ahead of it.

• Forward Collision Warning (FCW) alerts drivers when they are following another car too closely and are at risk of a collision.

• Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) works with Forward Collision Warning, applying an automatic brake when drivers are too close and in danger of rear-ending a car in front of them.

The technology in the Honda Sensing suite accounts for lapses that might otherwise lead to accidents on the road. Driving with these safety systems present is like having an extra set of eyes and ears. It’s there for you if you don’t pass the reflex test, and it can make a difference when you need it most.
