8 Safety Features of the 2024 Honda Accord

Honda vehicles are renowned for their remarkable longevity. With safe driving habits, you and your Honda could easily reach the 250,000-mile mark. The 2024 Honda Accord comes with Honda Sensing safety features that will help keep you on the road for a long time.

8 Safety Features of the 2024 Honda Accord

1. Adaptive Cruise Control With Low-Speed Follow

No need to turn your cruise control on and off when the traffic flow changes. Honda Sensing Adaptive Cruise Control uses radar sensors and a front camera to determine the speed of traffic and the distance between you and the car in front of you. The system then regulates your speed to keep a safe following distance.

2. Lane Keeping Assist With Traffic Jam Assist

Sensors detect lane markings and let you know when you drift across them. If you cross the line without activating your turn signal, the system will give your steering wheel a nudge to keep you centered. Traffic Jam Assist operates when you’re driving on the highway at low speeds, giving you extra peace of mind when navigating rush hour traffic.

3. Road Departure Mitigation

Similar to Lane Keeping Assist, this feature alerts you when you cross pavement markings and leave the roadway without signaling. In addition to a visual warning, the system sends haptic feedback through the steering wheel and corrects your steering.

4. Traffic Sign Recognition

Don’t get caught off-guard by a sudden speed limit change. Traffic Sign Recognition uses the camera to detect traffic signs and displays the information on your 10.2″ digital Driver Information Interface.

5. Collision Mitigation Braking

When the sensors detect a vehicle or pedestrian in front of you, the system will apply the brakes, reducing the impact of the collision or avoiding it altogether.

6. Available Blind Spot Information System

Make sure you have all the information you need before changing lanes. In multi-lane traffic, the system monitors your blind spots on either side and alerts you with a light-up indicator when a vehicle is present. If you activate your turn signal when there’s a car in your blind spot, an audible warning will let you know it’s not safe to ​change lanes.

7. Available Cross Traffic Monitor

When backing out of a parking space, this feature detects vehicles approaching from either side. When a car is coming, you’ll hear a beep and an indicator will appear on your rearview camera display.

8. Available Auto High-Beam Headlights

Be a safe driver and a good citizen with high beams that adjust automatically based on your surroundings. When active, your high beams will come on when driving on a dark road. When the system detects another vehicle, it will automatically switch to low beams.
