Honda Cars Philippines, Inc. (HCPI), Honda Philippines, Inc. (HPI), and Honda Safety Driving Center (HSDC) are staying committed to road safety awareness. Last June 16, 2025, Honda invited government representatives, media friends, and customers to the Honda Safety Driving Center for its One Honda Road Safety event to reiterate road safety practices and its advanced driver assist system technology.
The day was split into an insightful morning program and practical safety demonstrations in the afternoon. The road safety awareness seminar in the morning tackled topics on safe driving and riding behavior, hazard prediction, tips on preventive maintenance and common vehicle emergencies, and vehicle safety technology.
To put these lessons into practice, demonstrations took place in the afternoon through test drives and rides. Test drives for models equipped with Honda SENSING, Honda’s advanced driver assist system, were available at the venue. HCPI also offered test rides to experience the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) which helps warn, mitigate collision, or lessen the severity of frontal collision. Participants got to hop on a Honda HR-V as authorized personnel drove it towards a car dummy posing as a real-life obstacle and see how the car alerts the driver and applies brakes to avoid collision.
Other Honda SENSING features include:
- Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow (LSF)*
*LSF is available on Honda Civic, HR-V, CR-V, and Civic Type R models equipped with Honda SENSING
- Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)
- Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) with Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
- Auto High Beam (AHB)*
*Included with the All-New CR-V RS e:HEV CVT variant is the Adaptive Driving Beam (ADB), an intelligent LED headlight that helps enhance visibility as well as adjusting the height of the light beam to avoid dazzling the car in front and pedestrians.
- Lead Car Departure Notification (LCDN)
On the other hand, HPI’s latest motorcycle lineup comes with features designed to keep riders safe. The Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS), and Combined Braking System (CBS) technology helps provide smooth, controlled braking and improves overall braking efficiency. RoadSync, on the other hand offers convenience and easy access to calling, messaging, navigation, and music while riding which is now present with The All- New PCX160 model.
Other safety features on Honda motorcycles include:
- Emergency Stop Signal (ESS) a safety feature that flashes hazard lights when the bike brakes suddenly, warning drivers behind.
- Automatic Headlights On (AHO) Automatically turns on the headlights when the engine starts, helping keep the rider visible anytime.
Amid the numerous vehicular accidents in the Philippines lately, Honda conducted this event to reaffirm its commitment to its 2050 safety goal of a collision free society, having no road accidents involve any Honda vehicle, and its 50% halfway goal by 2030. Achieving this goal would mean a great deal to Honda as it promotes the safety of everyone sharing the road, not just drivers. Honda would like to remind everyone to always stay safe and actively educate themselves on road safety awareness and education to work towards this goal together.
