The DAF XD is a safe choice, performing well especially in Safe Driving, where the vehicle technologies and features assist in providing a safer driving experience. The XD excels with its direct vision, a low belt line contributing to the class leading vision, especially when coupled with the passenger side lower door vision window. Its indirect vision is also class leading with a camera monitor system that offers dynamic views and is particularly effective when coupled with the optional corner camera, replacing the class V/VI mirrors. This contributed to its CitySafe award. Crash Avoidance is adequate, with other trucks offering broader performance since the XD lacks the active steering support addressing lane departure collisions and the turn across path function with active braking protecting cyclists in cities. The DAF XD has more standard fit safety equipment than any other comparable vehicle making it a sound and safe choice in the regional distribution sector.
