One of the most dangerous things in life is something that most of us do every single day. Accidents on the road have proven to be life-altering and even fatal. Engineers at Nissan have been working tirelessly to invent new technology that can make driving safer for everyone.
One of the features that many models now have is forward collision mitigation. This high-tech function utilizes a sensor that has been installed at the front of the vehicle to analyze the relative velocity and distance to an obstacle directly ahead. The system sounds an alert if the object (most likely another car) is a true potential risk. This audible warning signal also triggers a tightening of the seatbelt in case of impact.
Coupled with this feature in the 2017 Nissan Pathfinder Platinum is emergency braking. If the driver is unable to react quick enough, the vehicle will immediately decelerate and come to a complete stop. Operations such as these help to make driving a much safer daily occurrence. You can rest easy knowing that your car is working hard to prevent potentially life-threatening incidences.
