What is active brake control?

Active brake control is an advanced safety feature in vehicles that automatically applies the brakes to prevent collisions or reduce the severity of accidents. Utilizing sensors and cameras, it detects potential obstacles or sudden stops in traffic, intervening when the driver may not react in time. This system enhances overall safety by providing an additional layer of protection, especially in emergency situations. It is commonly found in modern cars as part of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS).
