Nissan Develops Distance Control Assist System

In March, 2006, in its ongoing efforts to improve traffic safety, Nissan announced the development of Distance Control Assist System. This is a revolutionary electronic system that helps drivers control the distance between them and other vehicles on the road.

The new system is especially useful in heavy traffic when frequent braking is required.

The Distance Control Assist System is the latest innovation developed under Nissan's * Safety Shield 2 Concept, an accident prevention and management approach based on the idea of "vehicles that help protect people."
