The A-to-Z of safety

The bus is one of the worlds safest modes of transport, thanks in no small part to Mercedes-Benz innovations. See the advantages of the Mercedes-Benz integral safety concept for yourself, simply by taking a look at the Intouro.
Safety that leaves nothing to chance. Since the invention of the motorised bus by Carl Benz, Mercedes-Benz has been pioneering the further development of bus and coach safety. Many of the innovations that are standard today made their debut in a vehicle bearing the Mercedes star. Mercedes-Benz pursues the vision of accident-free driving, with the Mercedes-Benz integral safety concept contributing substantially to realising this aim. By consistently implementing this safety philosophy, this concept covers all stages of vehicle safety: from handling safety through safety in hazardous situations, protection in the event of an accident, to minimising the consequences of an accident. After all, you can never be too safe. Safety that sets the standard. Safety for you and your passengers isnt left to chance with the Intouro. Highly responsive all-round disc brakes help your driver defuse critical driving situations. The vehicle also comes as standard with ABS and engine-controlled acceleration skid control (ASR). These electronic guardian angels enhance safety when braking and moving off, making it easier for the driver to handle the vehicle in difficult road conditions. And if the worst should happen, the annular frame members provide your passengers and driver with a high degree of all-round protection. So everyone can rest assured their safety is a top priority in the Intouro. Safety that has everything under control. The drivers seat is a crucial safety factor. Perfected ergonomics reduce your drivers workload throughout the day. They have all switches and controls at their fingertips and a perfect view of all instruments and displays. This enables them to work in a relaxed seating position and concentrate fully on the road ahead. Is there any better form of protection for your passengers than a fully concentrated driver?
