ABS braking system
• - The ABS braking system prevents the wheels from locking when braking
• - It makes provides safest control during emergency braking under difficult road conditions.
- The ABS is in addition, if failure occurs the basic braking system continue to work.
• - The advantage of the system is to give maximum maneuverability by preventing the wheels from locking.
Seat Belts
• - Need & Requirements : Inside a moving car, if car suddenly stops, the occupant get hurled forward as the car has decelerated or stopped due to impact but passengers keep moving at about same speed as the car at the time of impact. So the body, particularly the head & chest smash into whatever is in front;windscreen,dash board, steering wheel
• Sometimes the passengers can be thrown out of the car through windscreen or opened door. It is not only the front seat passengers who are at risk but also the back seat passengers.
• Seat Belts restrain passenger & holds back to the seat - preventing from hitting any hard structure in the car
• - Types : Seat belts are of two types ; nonretracting and automatic-retraction. First type do not adjust to wearer’s movement & not convenient. The second type allows to move around freely. It has mechanism that restrains the occupant when car hits or stops suddenly.
- In normal driving, the belt fitted with a locking retractor allows occupant move freely in the seat while keeps tension on the belt. During a collision or sudden stop the retractor automatically locks the belt to help restrain body.
- Before putting on the seat belt move seat as far back as possible, seat back to be up upright and there should be no twists in the belt.
Air Bag
-Air bag is a safety device that protects the driver & the front seat passenger during head-on collision
- Air bag is an instantly inflatable cushion stored in the center pad of steering wheel and in the dash board on passenger side
• -In case of a collision of magnitude exceeding the set value, the sensor activates the mechanism and cushion inflates instantly to act as a soft protecting barrier
Horn (beep noise) operate for every one minute.
• Child Safety
•Infants and young children should always be properly restrained whenever they ride in a car as shown
• Children should seat in rear seat and not in lap of adults. Use child proof door locks
•There should be no loose items inside vehicle which could be thrown around and may hurt during accident or sudden braking / stops
•Luggage should be securely closed
• Seats should be upright, head restrain adjustment, & seat belts fastened
•First-Aid kits should be available
•Driver should not be under the influence of alcohol or drugs
