In this day and age, having a safe, reliable vehicle is more important than ever. If you decide to get a Toyota from your local Toyota dealer, you'll be pleased to know that the researchers and developers at Toyota have made car safety features a priority. Today, we're taking a closer look at five of the greatest safety features that come standard on Toyotas today, including the 2022 Toyota Corolla. 5 Great Car Safety Features You'll Find on Today's Toyotas at Your Local Toyota Dealer 1.  Automatic High Beams One of the most beneficial safety features you will find on Toyotas today is automatic high beams. With this standard safety feature, your car's camera will detect the taillights and headlights of vehicles in front of you and automatically switch to low beams, so you don't blind anyone and cause a collision. more 2. Lane Departure Alert Another incredible standard safety feature found in today's Toyotas is the lane departure alert. If you do not indicate that you are changing lanes, your vehicle will alert you that you may be drifting out of your lane unintentionally. In addition to beeping at you, your digital display will give you a visual notification that you may be about to merge into another lane by accident. 3. Lane Tracing Assist Lane tracing assist is another way your Toyota will help you remain safe while driving. This feature is activated when you enable Dynamic Radar Cruise Control. It was designed to help you stay in your lane when the lane markers on the road are visible. In other words, it is perfect for keeping you safer when driving down the interstate for long stretches. 4. Dynamic Radar Cruise Control Dynamic Radar Cruise Control is a highly advanced form of cruise control that goes a very long way in mitigating the risk of a collision while your cruise control is set. Using this type of cruise control, you can tell your vehicle that you want to maintain a certain distance (like 100, 130, or 160 feet) from the vehicle in front of you. If the vehicle in front of you slows down, the highly advanced camera in your windshield will pick that up and slow your vehicle down to match its speed and keep you at your preferred safe following distance. 5. Pre-Collision System With Pedestrian Detection The pre-collision system with pedestrian detection is another highly effective safety feature that will help to keep you and those you share the road with safe. What's great about this system is that it doesn't just detect vehicles and pedestrians. It will also slow down for cyclists. There are a number of great safety features you can expect to find on your next Toyota, including automatic high beams, lane departure alert, and lane tracing assist.
