Chevrolet Safety Technologies at a Glance Front Pedestrian Braking Keep yourself and pedestrians out of harm’s way. Front Pedestrian Braking can detect when there is a person ahead within your vehicle’s trajectory. If it identifies a risk of collision with the pedestrian, it will engage the brakes. Forward Automatic Braking Mitigate a potential head-on collision. Forward Automatic Braking will identify a potential collision ahead and apply braking as needed. Whether it’s a high or low speed accident, this feature can help. Lane Keep Assist With Lane Departure Warning Stay in your lane throughout your entire drive. If you start to veer outside of your lane without your turning signal on, this feature provides lane departure warnings and light steering adjustments to ensure you stay safely in your lane. Forward Collision Alert Stay safe in traffic. A lot of starting and stopping can be tricky, and Forward Collision Alert will help you avoid bumping into the car in front of you accordingly. It will alert you if you approach the vehicle ahead too closely. Rear Cross Traffic Alert Back out of a parking spot or driveway with confidence.
