Active and passive safety
Explanation
Active safety systems in a vehicle are those designed to prevent accidents. These systems help the driver reduce the possibility of having an accident by improving the control and stability of the vehicle. Some examples of these systems include the brakes, the wheels, and the lighting system.
For these systems to function correctly, it is essential that the driver uses them properly. For example, brakes have technologies such as the anti-lock braking system (ABS), which prevents the wheels from locking during a sudden stop, and the autonomous emergency braking (AES), which can activate the brakes automatically if it detects an obstacle.
In summary, active safety systems do not eliminate the possibility of having an accident, but they do help the driver reduce the risk of it occurring, improving the safety and control of the vehicle in various situations.
