Here at Al Willeford Chevrolet, we want you to have the information you need to be an educated driver. One of the more common safety features found in newer model vehicles is a blind-spot monitor. What exactly is it and how does it help you drive safer?
Part of driving safely is checking your side and rear-view mirrors constantly to see where other vehicles are. However, traffic changes constantly and it’s easy for cars to slip into your blind spot.
A blind-spot monitor uses radar or sonar to detect the presence of a vehicle in a place you might not be able to see. Some vehicles give you alerts any time a vehicle enters the blind spot, while others only alert when you active the turn signal. Many cars have a blind-spot monitor included in its safety package. Come by the dealership in Portland, TX to test drive a few for yourself.
