Are you on the lookout to buy a new or used car in Bahrain or the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia ?

This detailed guide will assist you in understanding first hand the common car safety features that you will likely come across from time to time.

Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)

Anti-lock Braking System which is shortly known as ABS is a simple system that stops a car from skidding on slippery road surfaces or when the brake is hit suddenly. This neat ABS control unit effectively monitors the rotational speed of all car wheels with the help of sensors.

If one of them threatens to lock, a solenoid valve in the control unit of the ABS reduces the immense brake pressure. Thereafter, the pressure then increases up to the locking limit once more. With all this happening, the car remains stable, and you remain able to steer with ease.

Traction Control

Traction Control systems help to optimize the grip and stability of the car on the road. This advanced traction control system is installed in most of the cars today to enable them to form traction or friction on any kind of road surface. This feature helps reducing engine power, allowing the car to accelerate smoothly on slippery or super-smooth surfaces.

ISOFIX

ISOFIX car seats have two arms on the back of the seat that hooks onto small metal bars fixed to the frame of the vehicle. In simple words, ISOFIX is the international standard for attachment points that allows you to fit a child’s car seat directly into a car. This kind of system secures the car seat using these compatible anchor points on the car and the seat.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)

Adaptive Cruise Control which is also known as Intelligent Cruise Control and shortly known as ACC is an automated vehicle speed management system that monitors the traffic ahead and adjusts the speed automatically in real-time. Adaptive Cruise Control systems vary from brand to brand, but all ACCs use a radar/camera system to track the vehicles ahead.

Lane Departure Warning

The Lane Departure Warning is an electronic driving aid that assists in keeping the car in a straight line by scanning the road to check where the lane markers are and thereafter warn the driver when the car begins to move out of its lane. This warning technology comes very handily on narrow roads, or during long drives when people usually kind of fall aslseep while driving.

Airbags 

The feature of airbags have saved a lot of lives during accidents over the past decade and helps to decrease injuries to critical parts of the human system. The airbags stretchable fabric is compressed and packed in various locations throughout your vehicle and is based on the make of the car as well a the cost of the car. When there is an accident, the airbags fill up air in a matter of milliseconds to quickly to provide a cushioning system.
