Safe Driving Technologies Shine at 2013 Chicago Auto Show - DMR

Thursday, February 14, 2013

Cutting-edge technology tied to safe driving is one of the chief trends that surfaced at the 2013 Chicago Auto Show - the nation's largest. Manufacturers are hard at work developing new innovations that comply with road-safety regulations.

In an effort to keep Illinois roads safe, 75 municipalities throughout the state, including Chicago, have banned the use of cell phones while driving. Automakers have long been the leaders in developing hands-free interfaces allowing vehicle occupants to remain connected to their mobile device.

  • Active and passive safety technology
  • Adaptive cruise control with brake assist
  • Smart phone app integration
  • WiFi hot spot
