Ford is Breaking the Mold Again When it Comes to Safety Innovation

Ford is introducing yet another new safety innovation called ?Curve Control?. Curve Control debuts as standard equipment on the all-new 2011 Ford Explorer going into production later this year. The technology senses when a driver is taking a curve too quickly ? a situation found to contribute to about 50,000 crashes each year in the U.S. ? and rapidly reduces engine torque and can apply four-wheel braking, slowing the vehicle by up to 10 mph in about one second, far faster than most drivers can react on their own.
