In its basic form, a forward collision warning system monitors a vehicle's speed, the speed of the vehicle in front of it, and the distance between the vehicles, so that it can provide a warning to the driver if the vehicles get too close, potentially helping to avoid a crash. [3]
Speed warning systems are designed to alert the driver of the vehicle when they have exceeded the speed limit. To do this, GPS technologies are used to triangulate the vehicle's location; along with a record of speed limits in the area, the system uses built-in speed sensors to notify the driver when they exceed the speed limit. If the list of ...
A Bose audio system was standard on 2LT and LTZ models. [6] [7] For 2014, Chevrolet added Forward Collision Alert and Lane Departure Warning to the Traverse. [8] For 2015, a revised 18-inch wheel and Siri Eyes Free were added. [9] For 2016, the Traverse included OnStar 4G LTE connectivity with Wi-Fi hotspot. For 2017, the LTZ trim was renamed ...
AEB differs from forward collision warning: FCW alerts the driver with a warning but does not by itself brake the vehicle. [4] According to Euro NCAP, AEB has three characteristics: [5] Autonomous: the system acts independently of the driver to avoid or mitigate the accident. Emergency: the system will intervene only in a critical situation.

New safety features introduced on the third-generation Equinox include a surround-view camera, forward collision warning, low-speed automatic braking, and a Safety Alert Seat, as well as a standard Rear Seat Alert system, a feature first introduced on the 2017 GMC Acadia. [31]
A simple collision avoidance system. In transportation, collision avoidance is the maintenance of systems and practices designed to prevent vehicles (such as aircraft, motor vehicles, ships, cranes and trains) from colliding with each other. They perceive the environment with sensors and prevent collisions using the data collected from the sensors.
When compared to the European Euro NCAP, the NHTSA rating system lacks forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking systems, lane departure warning systems, driver monitoring systems, and other active and passive component designed to also protect pedestrians and bicyclists, according to NTSB.
