1 . Backup camera Backup cameras are such an important feature that as of 2018 , all new vehicles sold in North America must be equipped with one .
2 . Advanced driver assistance system Staying alert behind the wheel is the best way to avoid getting in an accident . However , features like automatic braking , adaptive cruise control and lane departure warnings can go a long way in helping to keep your family safe .
3 . Good crash-test score It ’ s important to choose a vehicle that can keep you and your family safe if you get into an accident . Therefore , check to see if the model you ’ re interested in has been tested by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety ( IIHS ) and has a good safety score .
4 . Superior airbags Look for a vehicle with good airbags that will reduce the risk of serious injuries or fatalities if you get into an accident .
5 . Automatic emergency call system If you choose a car with this feature , you can rest assured that you and your family will get the help you need as quickly as possible if you ’ re in an accident .
When you ’ re ready to test drive a vehicle , make sure to bring your child ’ s car seat with you to ensure it ’ ll fit in the backseat . n
