Whether you’re hauling a trailer, commuting through town, or heading down a rural stretch of Highway 70, safety isn’t something you should have to second-guess. RAM trucks are known for strength, power, and capability – but they’re also built with smart features that look out for you on every trip. At Doug Henry CDJR in Kinston, we know that a good truck isn’t just about muscle – it’s about peace of mind behind the wheel.
Let’s take a closer look at the safety and driver assistance tech that sets RAM apart from the pack.
From the RAM 1500 to the RAM 2500 and beyond, today's RAM trucks offer more than just towing strength. You’ll find cutting-edge driver assistance and crash protection systems working together to keep you in control, even when the unexpected happens.
This system monitors the road ahead and alerts you if you’re closing in on another vehicle too quickly. If you don’t hit the brakes in time, the system can apply them for you, helping reduce the impact or avoid a collision altogether. It’s especially helpful during highway driving or when traffic suddenly slows down in front of you.
RAM’s available adaptive cruise control adjusts your speed to maintain a safe following distance. If traffic slows down, your truck slows down, too, even coming to a full stop when necessary. When traffic picks back up, so do you. It’s ideal for long drives and busy commutes around Kinston or Goldsboro.
This feature helps you stay centered in your lane by gently guiding the steering if it senses unintentional drifting. Combined with a warning system that alerts you when you veer without signaling, it's designed to help reduce side-swipe accidents and fatigue on longer drives.
RAM takes towing safety seriously. With available Blind Spot Monitoring that extends to your trailer, the system helps you change lanes with confidence, whether you’re towing a boat, a camper, or a loaded work trailer. It alerts you when other vehicles enter your blind spot, even when your trailer is in tow.
Backing into a tight spot or lining up a trailer hitch? The available 360° Surround View Camera provides a bird’s-eye view of your truck and its surroundings, making it easier to maneuver in crowded areas or job sites. Paired with front and rear park assist sensors, it adds precision and safety to every parking task
Say goodbye to guesswork when parking. This system uses sensors to detect objects in front and behind your RAM truck, alerting you with audible signals if you’re getting too close. Whether you’re squeezing into a downtown Kinston space or backing up a trailer, this tech gives you extra awareness where it counts.
Beneath all the tech is a frame built to handle impact. RAM’s high-strength steel frame helps absorb crash energy, while the advanced airbag system deploys intelligently based on the severity of impact and where passengers are seated.
RAM trucks aren’t just made to work – they’re made to protect. From modern driver assistance systems to old-school strength, these trucks bring serious safety without sacrificing performance. At Doug Henry CDJR in Kinston, we’ll help you find the right RAM with the safety features you want and the power you need.
Stop by today, take a test drive, and see why RAM continues to set the bar for truck safety.
