Road hazards, Mother Nature, a vehicle's age, other drivers--all those typically to blame for the accidents we get into. Rarely, however, is the most villainous accident creator placed under the spot light: Distractions.
Kids, cell phones and song changes are just some of the items causing us to lose focus while behind the wheel. And while we can't sell our kids and certainly don't want to part with our electronic devises, automakers are stepping up to the plate and creating safety focused on minimizing those distraction created accidents.
With Toyota, preventative safety measures come alive in its Star Safety System, encompassing such features as Traction Control, Brake Assist and Vehicle Stability Control. So when the phone rings, a fight breaks out in the back seat or that Pharrell Williams song comes on the radio one more time, you can breathe easy knowing you are protected. However, that doesn't mean that we still shouldn't pledge to drive safer, but that we are protected for when the occasional distraction does occur.
And in the off chance that your Toyota wasn't able to 100 percent protect you and your car, stop on into the Service Center at Lithia Toyota of Missoula in Missoula, MT and allow our experts to do the rest.
