GLOSSARYHomemore >Safety systemsAnti-lock Braking System (ABS) prevents the wheels from locking when the brakesare applied in an emergency. This reduces the possibility of skidding on wet, icy, orloose surfaces, enabling you and your drivers to retain steering control.Advanced safety systemsTSATrailer Stability Assist (TSA) utilises Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA). It controls individualwheel slips to limit any potential trailer swing due to lane changing or strong winds.InsightCivic HybridJazzEBAEmergency Brake Assist (EBA) is a system that detects quick pedal movement,such as making an emergency stop, and automatically boosts braking power toreduce stopping distance.Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) uses information from a radar mounted inside thefront grille to keep you at a safe distance from the car in front when driving on themotorway. This helps to relieve stress and fatigue during long motorway journeys.Civic 5 DoorCivic Type SAccord SaloonEBDElectronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) works in tandem with ABS. It analysesthe weight distribution around the car and automatically adjusts the braking forceapplied to front and rear wheels to maintain directional stability.Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) detects if a collision is imminent, thengives you advance warning with audio and visual alerts. If an accident is unavoidable,the system reduces the severity of the impact by automatically initiating braking toreduce speed and tightens your seatbelt in preparation for impact.Accord TourerCR-VCivic Type RGlossaryVehicle Stability Assist (VSA) helps keeps drivers in full control. If you accelerate orcorner in conditions where a wheel can slip, VSA will sense it, and apply brakingpressure to that particular wheel until it finds its grip again.Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) uses images from a camera mounted besidethe rear view mirror to sense where the white lines are on the road. It’ll then relaytiny adjustments to the electric power steering to help reduce the risk of your carleaving the lane.Electronic Power Steering (EPS) is an electric motor that assists steering instead ofhydraulics.
