Toyota's Safety Sense active safety features can protect loved ones by reducing accident severity and preventing accidents.

Some safety technologies get a lot of press, but others may also improve safety. Standard side mirror turn signals can help when you don't see a vehicle in your blind spot, by alerting them to your intention to switch lanes, which allows the other driver to avoid an accident with you. Optional Adaptive Front-Lighting System (AFS) points head lamps towards where the vehicle is heading, better lighting the road ahead.
