Protect your family in a Honda CRV

There are about 3 million minor injuries, 2 million permanent injuries, and nearly 40,000 deaths in the United States each year caused by motor vehicle accidents. Car accidents are one of the most common causes of injuries. Even the smallest crashes can cause serious injury and permanent disability, not to mention increases in insurance rates and other costly inconveniences. Serious car accidents that result in serious injury and death are tragedies for everyone involved. Nothing is more devastating and unexpected than a car accident.

Despite your best efforts to drive safely and safely, you will always be at the mercy of other drivers as soon as you pull out of the driveway. For this reason, it is important that your vehicle provides full protection, both inside and out. Clearly, the Honda CRV is built with your family’s safety in mind. With its solid steel exterior and exceptional driving capabilities, you can stop worrying about your own safety and start focusing on other drivers on the road.

Solid exterior construction

The robust frame of the Honda CRV is designed to provide greater safety in collisions with larger vehicles due to its unbeatable strength and durability. The frame is constructed of high-strength steel and uses extensive cross bracing and reinforcing members in key areas of its frame. This construction will help absorb and disperse the energy of the collision over a larger area. The Honda CRV is also designed to withstand high levels of resistance in key areas for added protection.

• Side impact door beams. Dual side impact door beams provide protection for passengers during a side impact. They are made of high-strength steel and absorb the energy of impact.
• Front and rear collision zones.Front and rear crash zones provide all passengers with added protection during front and rear collisions. They are also made of high-strength steel that will absorb shock.

In addition to providing solid protection, the steel frame also reduces vibration and noise level, leaving you with a smoother and more comfortable ride during all your road trips.

Driving capabilities

Nothing is more terrifying for a driver than suddenly losing control of the vehicle due to the elements on the road. With these key driving features, which are also found on the Honda Odyssey, you no longer have to worry about driving in the rain or snow.

• Antilock Braking System (ABS).The anti-lock braking system (ABS) is used in the Honda CRV to give the driver greater control of the vehicle’s steering. ABS uses a special modulator to apply pressure to the brakes, preventing the wheels from locking. This feature helps the driver maintain steering control when braking hard. The Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD) system also enhances this feature by balancing the front and rear braking forces.
• Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA).Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) is a sophisticated safety device that helps the driver retain control of the vehicle if any amount of lateral slip is detected. This system controls sudden changes in vehicle behavior, allowing the driver to take control of the situation. For example, when the driver is turning a corner or has to make a sudden maneuver, the VSA system will automatically activate if it detects any loss of traction and stabilize the vehicle.

It is impossible to control other drivers on the road, but choosing a strong and reliable vehicle for your family is possible and extremely important for your safety. It is up to you to take the proper steps that will reduce the consequences and severity of car accidents, should they occur. It is always easier to prevent than to repair.
