Our team at Jaguar Greensboro likes to keep our shoppers informed about what features come with our vehicles. Many shoppers want the most advanced safety and driver-assist features on the market, and a blind spot monitor is among one of the most popular features available. Read further for more information about blind spot monitors.
A blind spot monitor sends you visual and/or audible warnings if a vehicle is detected in your blind spot zones. The system uses cameras, radars, and/or sensors to detect approaching vehicles. Most blind spot monitoring systems issue visual alerts on the exterior mirrors.
Studies have shown that driver-assist features, which include blind spot monitors and lane-keeping systems, can enhance protection by helping drivers avoid lane-change accidents. The Insurance Institute of Highway Safety concluded that blind spot monitors and lane departure warning systems can help reduce the one in four fatal collisions that are caused by lane drift.
