Tipper safety features.

LDW can detect lane markings and provide an audible and visual warning under certain conditions if the driver wanders near or out of the lane. The driver can select two sensitivity settings or switch the feature off.

The ADAS’ camera recognises particular traffic signs, including speed limit signs, and informs the driver by displaying them on the dash instrument panel. AMT only.

FACC uses a stereo camera to detect the vehicle in front of the truck, then maintains a set distance from that vehicle by slowing or speeding up the truck accordingly. FACC will work at any speed, so if the vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the truck will too. AMT only.

If the TSR detects a change in speed limit, it alerts the driver who can then apply a vehicle speed limiter to that speed by operating the resume button. AMT only.

When the truck is moving at speeds above 70 km/hr, AAS will alert the driver if the system detects any inconsistent steering input and will suggest that the driver takes a break.

At an intersection, side-mounted short-range radars can detect obstacles or obstructions in the vehicle’s path, including cars, bicycles and pedestrians, and alert the driver. 4x2 only.

At an intersection, side-mounted short-range radars can detect obstacles or obstructions in the vehicle’s path, including cars, bicycles and pedestrians, and alert the driver if vehicle and speed conditions are met, to prevent a collision. If the driver does not respond to the IWS alert, the brakes may be applied autonomously to prevent a collision. 4x2 only.

If the driver fails to brake after the vehicle warns of a pedestrian, cyclist or other vehicle appearing nexpectedly, the AEB system can apply the brakes automatically to avoid a collision. The brake lights will also come on during this process.

ESC uses data from a number of sensors to monitor driver input and vehicle control. If it detects understeer, oversteer or roll-over, ESC can override driver input, reduce power and/or apply individual wheel braking and assist the driver to maintain vehicle control.

CSL allows vehicle owners to set a predetermined maximum speed that the driver cannot accelerate beyond.

HSA is included on trucks with manual transmissions. When the brake pedal is applied on a hill, the brake pressure is maintained until the clutch is released (or eight minutes) to assist in preventing the truck from rolling back.

ASR detects when either or both rear wheels are spinning faster than the other on a loose surface, then reduces torque and/or applies the brake to the spinning wheel to improve traction.

DWS helps drivers to maintain a safe distance from the vehicle ahead by giving a warning if a pre-set distance is reached. The driver can choose from four pre-set minimum distances.

TMW monitors stationary vehicles in front of the truck. If the vehicle ahead moves more than a set distance and you don’t follow along, an audible and visual warning sounds.

MAM helps to slow the truck’s acceleration and mitigate collision damage when the system determines the accelerator pedal is depressed more than needed, such as by accident, while the vehicle is stopped and has an obstacle in front of it. AMT only.

If CTW recognises that the cab tilt is not fully locked, an audible and visual warning sounds.

EPB will automatically apply the park brake when activated by the driver, ensuring the correct amount of parking brake force is applied. EPB will automatically apply when the vehicle is in park.

ABS determines if a wheel is locked and not turning. It then releases the locked wheel brake and reapplies pressure to reduce locking and maintain control, allowing the driver to effectively steer and brake at same time.

FCW scans the road ahead to detect vehicles, pedestrians, bicycles, or other obstacles. Using a stereo camera system enables the truck to judge distance and relative speed in a similar way to human eyesight.​ If it senses a potential collision, it provides visual and audible warning to the driver.

In the event of a collision, the Supplementary Restraint System (SRS) will determine if the incident is above a certain intensity, and deploy airbags in a split second to cushion the cabin occupants and help reduce any injuries.

If the SRS senses sharp deceleration that indicates an accident, it will automatically pretension the seat belt to pull the occupant back into their seat and reduce the chance of injuries.

Isuzu trucks are built to the ECE-R29 safety standard, which is a global test certification from the United Nations. This cabin rating means that the truck’s cab has been designed to withstand excessive deforming in case of an incident. This rating isn’t currently mandatory in Australia, but cabins that are ECE-R29 approved offer superior protection for their occupants.

Additional reinforcement installed into the structure of the truck’s doors, Anti-Intrusion Bars protect cabin occupants in case of an incident.
