These days, many automakers are scrambling to catch up with the industry standards for vehicles with smart safety technology. With tons of driver alert features and semi-autonomous assist systems on the market, how do you choose? For the past few years, Ford has been perfecting and updating its Co-Pilot360 technology to offer the most advanced safety systems on the road.

Blind Spot Information System with Cross-Traffic Alert
Blind spots and lane changes on the highway are a pervasive problem. It can be hard to keep your eyes on the road in front of you while also checking your blind spot and carefully maneuvering a vehicle to change lanes. That's where BLISĀ® comes in. BLISĀ® monitors a vehicle's blind spot and alerts drivers to vehicles they can't see.

Lane-Keeping System
Nobody likes to admit that they've drifted out of their lane once or twice during a moment of distraction or carelessness. During those little slip-ups, it helps to have a vehicle equipped with Ford's Lane-Keeping System, which detects lines on the road and helps correct a vehicle so that it stays inside its own lane.

Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking
The Pre-Collision Assist system monitors the road ahead of the vehicle to detect other vehicles or pedestrians that could enter the vehicle's path. By alerting you to risks on the road, this system let you know when to hit the brakes to avoid a collision. Automatic Emergency Braking can also help by applying the brakes if absolutely necessary.

Other Systems
These are just a few of the many helpful Ford technologies. Adaptive Cruise Control maintains a preferred speed and a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you. Active Park Assist makes parallel parking as easy as pressing a button, while Evasive Steering Assist helps you avoid collisions when an obstacle is too close to avoid by braking. Together, these technologies work to make your driving experience safer and more confident.
