At Sound Depot and Performance in Gainesville, Florida, we have everything you need to help your teenager drive more safely. Along with safer driving, we can also help you as a parent gain more peace of mind about your kids being behind the wheel. We know this can be a stressful thought. That’s why we’re here to help! From vehicle trackers to backup cameras and collision avoidance devices, we can help set up your new driver for success.
Mobileye Helps Avoid Collisions
The Mobileye is one of the greatest technologies to help your teenager drive safer. Young drivers tend to get distracted easily. This device sits in your dash and “sees” in front of the vehicle. It will help keep your teenager aware of their surroundings and will notify them when a potentially hazardous event could occur.
The lane departure warning will assist in keeping the driver in their lane by giving a warning if the vehicle starts to drift into another lane. The headway monitoring and warning system will also help your young driver stay at a safe distance from any vehicles in front of them. If another car happens to brake suddenly, the gap between the two vehicles will begin to close. The driver will get a visual and audible warning to give them enough time to slow down and avoid a collision.
On top of all that, the Mobileye even recognizes posted speed limit signs and will notify the driver if they are driving too fast. How’s that for safety!
Track Your Vehicle with DroneMobile
The DroneMobile allows you to “stay connected with the people you care about.” If you’d like to be able to keep a closer watch on your new driver, this system is a great option. With the free app, you can track the vehicle on your smartphone or desktop from any location. As a parent, you can even get notifications if your teen is driving outside a window of time that has been set up.
If you head to the DroneMobile website and set up a predetermined location, you can also receive alerts when your child arrives at that site.
The DroneMobile will also help keep the vehicle secure by allowing you or the driver to check the vehicle’s status. Did your teen forget to lock the doors, or even lock the keys in the car? No problem! You will now be able to see if the vehicle is open or not and be able to lock/unlock it right from the mobile app.
Use the Momento Dash Cam to Keep Records of Travels
The Momento dash cam automatically turns on when the vehicle starts moving, providing you with footage of every second. If the vehicle is parked, the dash cam will even save the recording after an impact. This is the best proof you can have if you are ever in a hit-and-run. As a parent, you can conveniently view the footage any time on your Mac or PC.
Young drivers are more likely to be assumed guilty in an accident, but with the Momento dash cam, you’ll have all the proof you need to defend your child. Another great perk is that many insurance companies even offer discounts to drivers who have a dash cam installed.
CarPlay & Android Auto Assist in Making Your Teenager Drive Safer
We all know that teenagers love their phones, and it can be tempting for them to text while driving. As a parent, this can be one of your biggest nightmares. It’s possible that CarPlay and Android Auto were designed with you in mind. These advanced technologies allow your teen to use their phones safely while driving. This means they are also able to stay connected with you while they are on the road.
CarPlay can be used with an iPhone5 or above, while Android Auto can be used with an Android phone running 5.0 (Lollipop) or higher. These systems allow drivers to use many of the well-loved apps on their smartphones. You can make phone calls, send text messages and play music, all hands-free since everything is done through Bluetooth and voice control. With a new radio that is compatible with these systems, CarPlay and Android Auto can easily be installed in your teen’s vehicle.
Backup Cameras & Blind Spot Systems Protect Your Teen’s Vehicle and Surroundings
Some of the most common mistakes made by new drivers happen while driving in reverse or while parallel parking. With a backup camera and blind spot cameras and sensors, your teen will easily be able to see their surroundings, which will help avoid costly repairs. Not only will their vehicle be protected, the other vehicles and pedestrians around them will also remain visible.
You can have a backup camera installed in your teen’s car that will activate when the vehicle is placed in reverse. The image can be viewed on an existing screen in the vehicle or we can install one for you. There is also the option of installing a blind spot camera system. These cameras are placed under the sideview mirrors of the vehicle and become engaged when either of the blinkers are turned on. Blind spot sensors are also available to give your teen a visual and audible alert when another vehicle enters their blind spot.
For a complete system, Sound Depot can install the cameras and sensors to work together and provide the best protection possible and keep your teen safe.
