According to Allstate Insurance, Huntsville ranks number 5 for having some of the safest drivers in the country. Huntsville, number 5? Really? Have they been on the Parkway or University Drive during rush hour? Or how bout when it rains. It seems like there are a few people out there that forget how to drive when water falls from the sky.

Driving the 2012 VW Passat is the safest car on the road. It can also turn even the worst driver into a safe driver. How? Follow along...

First off the 2012 Passat comes with the Intelligent Crash Response System. In the event of a collision, the Intelligent Crash Response System unlocks the doors, turns off power to the fuel pump and turns on the hazard lights. Making it easier for response vehicles to see you.

Next it has the Crash Optimized Front End. The Passat has impacting absorbing elements in the front that helps minimize the collision that reaches you. Don't you feel safer already?

The Passat comes with 6 airbags, ABS that helps keep the brakes from locking up during sudden stops and helps you retain control over the steering during emergency braking, and Electronic Stability Control (ESC). In case you have to swerve around something unexpectedly, ESC helps adjust for over steer or under steer by applying corrective forces to individual wheels.

The Passat also comes with TMPS to help inform you of any loss of pressure to your tires right when it occurs.

To make the 2012 Passat even safer while your driving, it comes with Bluetooth so you can make phone calls while having both hands on the leather trimmed multifunction steering wheel. With the multifunction steering wheel you can control the Bluetooth and the radio/cd player. So no matter what you will always have your eyes on the road.
