8 The Road to Saving More Lives Passive safety products, such as airbags and seatbelts, are there to help protect you from injury if a crash is unavoidable. More than a million human beings owe their life to them. PROTECTION AUTONOMOUS DRIVING The major advancement from Active Safety products is to reduce the crash severity and avoid the crash altogether by warning the driver or automatically braking the car. PREVENTION In the future, self driving cars will ultimately provide the third level of automotive safety, significantly reducing the element of human error. Allowing the car to act automatically is crucial when moving towards our vision of saving 150,000 lives per year. AUTOMATION
