How MAZDA Safety Features Protect against Distracted Driving
Distracted driving is a leading cause of accidents nationwide, and Mazda safety features give you a meaningful layer of protection every time you take the wheel. Berglund Mazda in Salem, VA, carries Mazda vehicles equipped with the i-Activsense® suite of driver-assistance technology. Learn how this technology keeps you safe on the road.
Catching Fatigue Before It Catches You
On a long stretch of I-81, repetition is the enemy. The Driver Attention Alert watches your steering inputs and driving patterns over time, and when it picks up the subtle inconsistencies that signal fatigue, it prompts you to stop and rest. It's a vital co-pilot on longer trips.
When the Gap Closes Faster Than You Can React
A split-second distraction in stop-and-go traffic can close a gap before your foot reaches the brake. Smart Brake Support monitors the road ahead with front-facing sensors and applies the brakes on its own if a collision becomes likely.
What Mirrors Miss on a Highway Merge
The Blind Spot Monitoring feature in new Mazda models is built for what your peripheral vision cannot cover. It uses radar sensors to track vehicles in adjacent lanes and triggers a side mirror warning the moment one enters your blind spot, with an audible alert if you signal into that lane anyway. The Lane Departure Warning System adds a second line of defense against slow, unintentional drift.
Navigation without Taking Your Eyes Off the Road
Every time you glance down at the center screen, your eyes are off the road. The available Active Driving Display® puts speed, turn-by-turn directions, and system alerts on the lower windshield instead, so critical information stays at eye level where it belongs. Voice command through Mazda Connect™ goes further, letting you call, navigate, and adjust audio entirely by voice.
