Correct answer
active.
The vehicle's steering is a component of the active safety system. Active safety systems are designed to prevent the possibility of having an accident while driving; in other words, they are a means of preventing the incident from happening in the first place. In the case of the steering, it plays a fundamental role in the control and manoeuvrability of the vehicle. It allows the driver to steer the vehicle safely, keep it in its lane and carry out turns and manoeuvres correctly. Active steering helps to avoid collisions and to maintain control of the vehicle in emergency situations, which makes it an essential element of safety while driving.
