New Automobile Safety Feature Coming Soon
August 2006
In the past two decades, automakers and safety-technology suppliers have made great attempts to protect vehicle occupants from injury and death. But, one common automobile accident problem remained—the rear-end collision. But times are now changing.
Automakers are now equipping their vehicles with seats designed to counter forces caused by rear-end crashes, reducing the chances of whiplash injuries.
Automakers who already have the newly equipped cars include:
- Honda
- Acurea
- Mercedes-Benz
- Volvo
- Saab
Rear-end collision and whiplash protections are now on the to-do list of all automakers in the industry.
