Technology and Security

Studies and statistics on road accidents confirm it: technology can play an important role in reducing driving risks. On-board electronic devices significantly contribute to increasing the vehicle's safety level. However, relying completely on these systems is a serious mistake. The main element for road safety – we will never tire of repeating it – is always the driver. If the laws of physics are not respected, no electronic system can totally eliminate the risk of an accident. So trust them, but don't rely on them blindly: safety features assist you in dangerous situations but do not replace you behind the wheel. For safety devices to function at their maximum efficiency, it is essential that the driver is aware of what is happening while driving and technically prepared to face risky situations. Let's distinguish: active safety devices reduce the chances of an accident occurring. Passive safety devices limit the consequences of an unavoidable accident and reduce the severity of injuries for the driver and passengers.
