Are you shopping for a vehicle in Ransomville, NY? At KI-PO Motors Chevrolet, Inc., we have a lineup of vehicles that offer the latest technologies in the automotive industry, which include smart driver-assist features that enhance safety and protection for you and those around you. A blind-spot monitor is a driver-assist technology that's available with many vehicles, but what does it do? Let's find out.
A blind-spot monitor has sensors that scan for approaching vehicles. When a vehicle is moving into one of your blind zones, a blind spot monitor will issue alerts, which are usually visual and auditory warnings. Some blind-spot monitors have a series of chimes or beeps that let you know a vehicle is approaching, and some offer visual signals on the mirrors.
Lane-change collisions are less likely to occur when a vehicle has a blind-spot monitor. Additionally, a blind spot monitor works well with other driver-assist features, such as lane-keeping systems, to further improve safety.
