At Con-way Freight, we have invested in new Freightliner Cascadia trucks which are packed with safety technologies, designed to prevent accidents and improve safe driving performance. These safety features include:
Forward Collision Warning—Adaptive cruise control automatically keeps a safe distance behind the vehicle ahead, accelerating or decelerating as needed in the absence of driver action.
Lane Departure Warning—This technology monitors a vehicle's position relative to highway lane markings and sounds an alarm similar to the sound a vehicle makes when it travels over a highway "rumble strip," alerting the driver to make a correction.
Roll Stability Control—This technology senses conditions which are consistent with a vehicle about to roll over, such as during hard cornering or change of direction. When the system senses a possible rollover, an indicator lamp on the dash alerts the driver and automatically decreases engine torque.
Our new trucks are an important part of our company-wide commitment to safety. We
know we share the road and we'll continue to do all we can to make it safer for our
drivers and you.
