Volvo Trucks – Emergency Braking at its Best!

Volvo Trucks – Emergency Braking at its Best!

Driving a semi truck across country can be a tiresome experience. We would imagine that all of those hours driving could allow the driver a lot of open road time where they might daze off.

As we all know, tons of crashes come from the unfortunate situation of drivers dazing off and recent technology in the form of an autonomous emergency braking system from Volvo is here to help!

When the computer system onboard this truck detects a hazard in the road, it will alert the driver. If the driver fails to respond, the system will work its magic and automatically apply the brakes, narrowly avoiding collision.

Check out the video below as the fast moving truck is saved from what appears to be a definite crash in a test situation thanks to the new technology. This could save lives!
