Woman driving a Mercedes-Benz using safety features

April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month, bringing attention to the real dangers of losing focus behind the wheel. While it’s so important to always stay alert, Mercedes-Benz safety features can help. Mercedes-Benz of Romeoville showcases the features that have your back.

ATTENTION ASSIST®

Your Mercedes-Benz model is always paying attention to you, so it can tell when you aren’t. ATTENTION ASSIST® monitors your driving behavior and can sense when your patterns become irregular. The system will warn you if you appear drowsy or inattentive, and it’s time to get off the road.

Active Brake Assist

The optional Active Brake Assist feature is another level of safety. The radar-based technology can tell when you’re getting too close to other vehicles or objects. If it senses that you could be involved in a collision, it will automatically brake for you or enhance your braking level.

Active Steering Assist

It can be difficult to stay in your lane when you’re distracted. Active Steering Assist is a proactive feature that becomes engaged when you’re using DISTRONIC® adaptive cruise control. It uses cameras and sensors to keep an eye on your lane markings and other vehicles, to keep you centered and protected.

Active Lane Keeping Assist

You’ll also be safeguarded with the optional Active Lane Keeping Assist feature. It senses if you’re veering from your lane and gives you a quick warning by vibrating the steering wheel. If you’re still drifting, it will selectively brake certain wheels to guide you back to safety.
