BMW is well-known for its ability to remain at the forefront of automotive performance, but the German automaker is no slouch in terms of safety either.  BMW has pioneered several advanced safety features in recent years, and many of them are on full display in the all-new X5, including Frontal Collision Warning, Pedestrian Warning, Lane Departure Warning and Active Blind Detection.

These features were designed to keep drivers and passengers safe, but not every driver enjoys having their car chime at them when they don’t believe they have made a mistake, that’s why there is an Intelligent Safety Button in the 2014 BMW X5.
