Driving in Sioux Falls and throughout South Dakota can present its fair share of challenges. That’s why it never hurts to have another set of eyes helping you navigate the roadways of this great state. Honda Sensing® is a suite of advanced safety features and driver-assist technologies. New Honda vehicles that are equipped with this safety suite employ a host of cameras and sensors to help alert you to things you might miss while driving. If the system detects a potential collision or accident is imminent, Honda Sensing technologies will use visual alerts, audible warnings, and steering assistance to help avoid them. Join Vern Eide Honda in Sioux Falls as our staff reviews these wonderful driver-assist features.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) helps you maintain a set following interval behind a detected vehicle for highway driving. If the detected vehicle slows to a stop, ACC is designed to slow and stop your vehicle as well. After stopping, a tap on the throttle instructs the car to continue maintaining the desired interval.*
TSR displays traffic-sign information to assist the driver while the vehicle is moving forward. The camera can recognize traffic signs and display the information about them on either the Driver Information Interface or the Head-Up Display (HUD).*
The Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS™) can help bring your Honda vehicle to a stop by automatically applying brake pressure when the system determines that a frontal collision is unavoidable.*
The Road Departure Mitigation System (RDM) can determine if you cross over detected lane lines without signaling and can also provide steering assistance to help you return to your lane or provide braking to help you keep from leaving the road entirely.*
With your hands on the steering wheel, long highway drives are easier with the Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS), which subtly adjusts steering to help keep your Honda vehicle centered in a detected lane.*

The Blind Spot Information System (BSI) uses sensors in the rear bumper to alert you when approaching vehicles are detected in an adjacent lane.*
The BSI also includes a cross traffic monitor which can alert you to approaching vehicles detected when you’re backing up.*
Honda Sensing® features are standard or available on nearly every Honda vehicles. Scroll down to see vehicles with the Honda Sensing suite.
Standard on every 2021 Honda Passport trim level.
2. TSR cannot detect all traffic signs and may misidentify certain signs. Accuracy will vary based on weather and other factors. System operation affected by extreme interior heat. Driver remains responsible for complying with all traffic regulations.
3. CMBS cannot detect all objects ahead and may not detect a given object; accuracy will vary based on weather, speed and other factors. System operation affected by extreme interior heat. Driver remains responsible for safely operating vehicle and avoiding collisions.
4. Road Departure Mitigation only alerts drivers when lane drift is detected without a turn signal in use and can apply mild steering torque to assist driver in maintaining proper lane position and/or brake pressure to slow the vehicle’s departure from a detected lane. RDM may not detect all lane markings or lane departures; accuracy will vary based on weather, speed and road condition. System operation affected by extreme interior heat. Driver remains responsible for safely operating vehicle and avoiding collisions.
5. LKAS only assists driver in maintaining proper lane position when lane markings are identified without a turn signal in use and can only apply mild steering torque to assist. LKAS may not detect all lane markings; accuracy will vary based on weather, speed and road condition. System operation affected by extreme interior heat. Driver remains responsible for safely operating vehicle and avoiding collisions.
6. Available on select 2018 and 2019 models. Auto High-Beam Headlights available on Accord, CR-V, Pilot, Odyssey and Ridgeline.
7. The system is not a substitute for your own visual assessment before changing lanes. Blind Spot Information System may not detect all objects behind or to the side of a vehicle and may not detect a given object; system accuracy will vary based on weather, size of object, and speed. Driver remains responsible for safely operating vehicle and avoiding collisions. Available on select 2018 and 2019 models. Blind Spot Information System available on Accord, CR-V, Pilot, Odyssey and Ridgeline.
8. Always visually confirm that it is safe to drive before backing up, as the Cross Traffic Monitor may not provide complete information about conditions at the rear of your vehicle. Monitor cannot detect all objects behind or to the side of a vehicle and may not detect a given object; system accuracy will vary based on weather, size of object, and speed. Driver remains responsible for safely operating vehicle and avoiding collisions. Available on select 2018 and 2019 models. Cross Traffic Monitor available on Accord, CR-V, Pilot and Ridgeline.
9. Display accuracy will vary based on weather, size of object and speed, and the display may not show all relevant traffic.
