    I own a 2006 Hyundai Elantra, so NO Safety Features.

     

    I am okay with this as I NO longer drive alot since retiring in 2020.  ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿ’ƒ

     

    And to DECREASE my chances of being run over [I do the Speed Limit], I try to do all my driving during the week when folks are working.  ๐Ÿ‘

     

    Thanks,

    Nicole  ๐Ÿ‘ต
