Mandatory safety items in cars in Brazil
This program's main objective is to reduce the rate of deaths from traffic accidents, adding new mandatory safety items to cars. It is worth mentioning that inevitably the value of cars will go up, due to the addition of more features to the vehicle.
Essential items were selected based on profiles of the most common accidents in the country. Check now which are these items that will be mandatory in cars in Brazil:
1. side impact test
All cars must have the side impact test, which includes the seat belt alert, side turn signal repeaters, daytime running lights and collision alert.
2. stability control
Stability control is one of the items that will become mandatory in cars. This feature prevents you from losing control of the car in risky situations.
3. Pedestrian impact protection / front / side against pole
A camera system responsible for “reading” the movements around the car will be mandatory. Thus, in the event of a possible collision, the system will alert the driver
4. Reverse camera
In addition to assisting in parking, the reverse camera is essential for the driver to have a full view of the back of the car. In addition, another very important feature is the sound sensor, which provides an idea of the proximity of objects that the camera has difficulty capturing. These two features working together are essential to the safety of your vehicle.
