How New Audi Vehicles Prevent Distracted Driving

New Audi safety features help drivers stay focused on the road ahead while minimizing distractions. The cutting-edge Audi pre sense® suite incorporates advanced technology to mitigate the risks of increasingly prevalent distracted driving to keep you protected. Learn what it does and explore equipped models at Audi Santa Monica.

Active Intervention and Fatigue Detection

Audi pre sense® technology provides a comprehensive safety net that can automatically apply the car’s brakes if it detects a front-end collision is imminent. The system uses a network of sensors and cameras to monitor traffic and pedestrians, while the Audi Side Assist® feature monitors your blind spots to prevent accidents when you change lanes. Finally, the Driver State Estimation system analyzes your steering behavior and lane position to detect signs of drowsiness or inattentiveness.

Stay Focused with Advanced Visuals and Voice Commands

One of the most helpful ways of combating visual distractions is by keeping your eyes and hands on the steering wheel. The available head-up display in new Audi vehicles projects important information such as speed and navigation directly onto the windshield right within your field of view. This allows you to keep a close eye on your vehicle’s status without glancing down at the instrument cluster or a separate screen. And on top of that, the MMI Touch Response® system has natural voice controls, which allow you to adjust the climate or make phone calls simply by saying “Hey Audi.”
