Volvo promises deathproof cars by 2020

The world of automobiles is just gearing for to the impossible. These white engineers are really pushing themselves beyond the limit and come 2020, we will be witnessing a revolution in the automobile world. But for now, the hot gist around is that Volvo promises death proof cars by 2020. According to them these cars will have the highest security features ever installed in a car such that no one will be killed or seriously injured in a new Volvo car or SUV.

Ultimately, all these new technologies will be tied together to create a car that can, literally, drive itself.

Here’s a look at the features that, when combined together in one vehicle, will essentially make it crash proof.

1.Adaptive Cruise Control: Adaptive cruise control, which is already available on many new cars, uses radar and sometimes other sensors to detect vehicles on the road ahead. You set a maximum speed and your car maintains a safe following distance on its own, operating the gas and the brakes for you. Some systems like this only work at highway cruising speeds, but many can work even in stop-and-go traffic.

2.Auto lane keeping assist: Cameras detect lane lines and road edges, and the car steers itself to stay in its lane.

3.Collision avoidance: Radar, cameras or other sensors detect obstacles ahead and warn the driver. If the driver still doesn’t react, the car can apply the brakes automatically to avoid, or at least reduce, the impact of a crash. In the United States, auto safety regulators have found this technology particularly effective in reducing crashes.

4.Pedestrian detection: Cameras, including ones that can see in the dark, are programmed to detect human forms that might wander into the path of the car. Drivers can be alerted and again, the car can brake automatically.

5.Large animal detection: Hitting a cow is definitely bad for the animal but it’s also very bad for a car’s passengers. Volvo has created a system that can detect when a big animal is walking in front of your car, saving both you and the absent-minded animal.

6.All other existing features including airbags and seat belts would also be improved.

Sadly, it may take sometime before all these features can function in Nigeria. How will lane keep assist even work when our roads and highways are not properly demarcated?

And people will still overspeed, drive too close, tap on their phones, ignore road and weather conditions. No matter the technology in your car, the laws of physics will not prevent accidents with careless drivers.

When I see cruise control, lane keeping assistance, large animal detection, collision avoidance and pedestrians detection, I know the car is not meant for Nigerians at all. Any Nigerian that buys this car thinking he has bought deathproof car will likely die faster than someone riding a normal car. How can you have large animal detection or pedestrians detection when Fulani herdsmen roam Nigerian roads like it is their father property? How can you have collision avoidance when an average Nigerian driver is a madman/woman on the wheel? And how can you have cruise control or lane keeping assistance when potholes on Nigerian roads are big enough to swallow a car. Volvo abeg develop special car specifically for Nigerian roads. I will suggest design like this

Nigerian politicians are like

Lol! It sounds weird

Really

Naso

when dem go do plane own, in these parts we are building shopping malls, betting shops, churches and mosques

Death proof cars? What about 'RECESSIONPROOF pockets?

nice

Don't expect it cheap.
Money laundering would be on the high rise in Nigeria

7. Danfo Craze Analyser.
8. Pot hole detection supercameras.

With those on board, i will be the first to buy Volvo.

Lol

Mechanical Engineers at it again. We make our workd movable.
There're only three faculties in every Higher institution "Faculty of Engineering, Medicine and Others"
There're only two departments in all higher institutions Dept. of Mech Engr. and Others.

God bless Mech. engineers!

God bless Others also!

Let us talk about the price of commodities. Forget about death-proof car

You mean death!

Not in Nigeria where witches will kill you even if you hit a banana tree

Bros the only death proof is you not being conceived

It's only a matter of time till we meet our creator..

That sounds encouraging against Mr. Death

Most politicians ar already booking.

Alryt... tech improvin day by day

Na only God fit guarantee life ... Nonsense!

TITANIC was also designed with deathproof in mind

HateU2, why is that I didn't hear from you?

That's not cool

T

What about SPOIL PROOF CAR

For Naija?. ..well by 2020 there might be slight improvement. .what about pothole recognition?...lmao.. Or in situations whereby there's no traffic controller or traffic light and cars are using Agidi to pass.. the car will just stop permanently since it's gonna stop when it notices any vehicle around it..

I hope they also provide shockproof,coz some car accident death arise from shock and not collision or injuries.

Oyibo will always be oyibo.

Meanwhile, Nigerian minister of technology is still figuring out how Nigeria can produce pencil by 2018.

I go buy one for Seun make him stop to dey use dat him leggedis Benz, him shoe don tire

Over the years, Volvo has been adjudged as the safest car in the world. If any vehicle manufacturer is going to achieve that feat, I will put my bet on Volvo
