Toyota Tundra - Safety First
THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY TO WORK: SAFETY FIRST.
You don't take chances on the job site, and you don't have to take chances on the way there either. In four crash tests conducted by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) - front, side, rear, and roof strength - Tundra Double Cab earned the top rating [1]. In fact, Tundra was the first full - size pickup truck ever named a Top Safety Pick by the IIHS [1]. And no wonder: Tundra comes equipped with driver and front outboard passenger airbags, side curtain and front seat - mounted side airbags [2], and driver and front outboard passenger knee airbags - all standard. Not that's what we call a work ethic.

Toyota's Star Safety System is a suite of six safety features offered standard on every new Toyota. The system includes Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)[3], Traction Control (TRAC), Anti-lock Brake System (ABS), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), Brake Assist (BA)[4] and Smart Stop Technology (SST)[5]. Termed "active safety features, they're designed to operate in certain situations to help prevent accidents from occurring in the first place.
1. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety rating for 2012 Tundra, vehicle class Large Pickups. Ratings are only meaningful when comparing vehicles in the same weight class. 2011 model year tested. 2. All airbag (AB) systems are Supplemental Restraint Systems. All ABs (if installed) are designed to inflate only under certain conditions and in certain types of severe collisions: side and side curtain ABs in side collisions: Roll Sensing Curtain ABs at a severe tilt degree, roll or lateral G-force. In all other accidents, the ABs will not inflate. To decrease the risk of injury from an inflating AB, always wear seat-belts, sit upright in the middle of the seat as far back as possible and do not lean against the door. Do not put objects in front of an AB or around the seat-back. Do not use rearward-facing child seat in any front passenger seat. The force on an inflating AB may cause serious injury or death. See your Owner's Manual for further information/ warnings. 3. Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) is an electronic system designed to help the driver maintain vehicles control under adverse conditions. It is not a substitute for safe driving practices. Factors include speed, road conditions and driver steering input can all affect whether VSC will be effective in preventing a loss of control. Please see your Owner's Manual for further details. 4. Brake Assist is designed to help the driver take full advantage of the benefits of ABS. It is not a substitute for safe driving practices. Braking effectiveness also depends on proper brake-system maintenance and tire and road conditions. 5. Smart Stop Technology operates only in the event of certain simultaneous brake and gas pedal applications. When engaged, the system will reduce engine power to help the brakes bring the vehicle to a stop. Factors including speed, road conditions and driver input can all impact stopping distance. Smart Stop Technology is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving and does not guarantee instant stopping. Please see your Owner's Manual for further details.
