Do you feel safe at night? If you live anywhere near our South Brunswick, NJ Dayton Toyota, then you probably should. South Brunswick was identified as one of the 50 safest communities in all of New Jersey, counting areas with 15,000 or more residents.
Safe Communities and Safe Driving
For the most part, communities are as safe as the residents make them -- and quite a few different things can factor into what makes a neighborhood safe or not. While we can't control everything, there is one aspect of safe communities that we can strongly support as a Toyota dealership: driving safely.
Have you ever thought about the way that your daily actions while driving have an impact on your overall community? Every time you follow the rules of the road, you're contributing to making South Brunswick a safer and better place for everyone to be. And rather than frustrating people by doing things like cutting them off, you're helping them by keeping things flowing smoothly.
It's hard to see this play out on a day-to-day basis, but the effect is undeniable: Your responsible actions while driving make our community a better place. Thank you.
Making South Brunswick Even Safer with Toyota Vehicles
South Brunswick is our home as much as it is yours. I honestly think we can get higher on the next report on community safety if we make a serious effort in that direction, so here are some simple things you can do to make your trips even safer.
When you visit our South Brunswick, NJ Dayton Toyota location and drive off in a brand new Toyota, you're in a vehicle that's been filled with some of the most advanced safety technologies in the world... but do you know how to use them? Improper handling of safety devices can result in injuries that could have been avoided, so let's take a look at what you can expect to see on a new Toyota.
The Star Safety System is the number-one line of defense in any new Toyota vehicle -- and it's standard on every new car they manufacture. That's right, on all of them. However, some of its components need to be activated manually, and knowing how to do this could make all the difference between a narrow escape and a horrible collision.
Outside of the frame of the vehicle (specifically engineered to direct force away from you during the most common forms of collisions) and the interior safety bags, most protection within Toyota vehicles focuses on the steering and braking systems; after all, these are what run the vehicle. Just by driving, you have access to systems that will do everything from detecting traction and slippage to intelligently applying more or less brake force in order to correct the systems, even if you never notice them kicking in.
For added safety, however, the braking assistance system will kick in if the vehicle senses you're braking too lightly, while the Smart Stop Technology will consider certain factors and drastically reduce the engine power during certain stopping situations, especially if you're trying to accelerate and brake at the same time.
The South Brunswick, NJ Dayton Toyota location is proud to be serving one of the safest communities in all of New Jersey. If you want to help make our community safer, talk with one of our representatives today about the safety features present in Toyota vehicles and how you can utilize them for maximum effectiveness.
