Correct answer

can drive with greater safety.

Passive and active safety systems in vehicles are designed with two fundamental aims: to prevent accidents and to reduce the consequences if they do occur. Active safety includes elements and technologies intended to prevent accidents, such as the ABS braking system, traction control, efficient lighting, and driver assistance systems, which help maintain attention and enable quick, appropriate responses to risk situations. Passive safety, on the other hand, focuses on minimising injuries during an accident, including features such as seat belts, airbags, controlled deformation structures, and headrests.
