Why Safety Is a Priority for Markham Roads


Markham cares a lot about keeping its roads safe for everyone. We have plans like York Region's Vision Zero Traveller Safety Plan. This plan wants to cut down serious crashes by 10% in five years.


Markham is also working on a Road Safety Plan (RSP) for the next five years to tackle traffic accidents and deaths.


Be visible, Be seen! is a campaign we support because it helps make sure drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians can see each other well, especially when it's hard to see out. Another big problem here is distracted driving; it causes most of the crashes in Ontario.


That's why we push for the “Pledge to Ignore” campaign that makes people promise not to use their phones while driving. In my team at Eastside Chevrolet Buick GMC Corvette, we believe safety comes first. When you pick a used BMW from us, you're choosing a car that fits perfectly with Markham’s focus on road safety.


Key Safety Features in Used BMW Models


In our selection of used BMW models, safety comes first. Our team at Eastside Chevrolet Buick GMC Corvette in Markham, Ontario, ensures each car is equipped with top safety features like Advanced Driver Assistance Systems and Emergency Braking Systems.


These tools not only protect you but also make driving more enjoyable. Trust us to find a BMW that keeps you safe on the road.


Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS)


At Eastside Chevrolet Buick GMC Corvette, we know that safety on Markham roads is important. That's why we are proud to offer used BMWs with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS).


These systems include features like Active Blind Spot Detection and Lane Departure Warning. They help drivers by watching for dangers in blind spots and alerting them if they start to drift out of their lane.


Adaptive Cruise Control Stop-and-Go is another key part of ADAS. It changes the car's speed to keep a safe distance from other vehicles. This means less stress for the driver, especially in heavy traffic.


Frontal Collision Warning with City Collision Mitigation can even stop the car on its own if it detects an upcoming crash and the driver hasn't reacted yet. Choosing a used BMW from us means you get access to these cutting-edge technologies at a better price, making your drive around Greater Toronto Area safer and more comfortable.


Lane Departure Warning and Lane Keeping Assist


Our team at Eastside Chevrolet Buick GMC Corvette knows safety is key on Markham roads. That's why we're excited about the Lane Departure Warning and Lane Keeping Assist in our used BMW models.


The Lane Departure Warning alerts drivers if they drift from their lane without signaling. This gives you time to correct your path. If you don't react quickly enough, the Lane Keeping Assist steps in.


It uses corrective steering to help keep your car straight in its lane. Both features work together to make driving safer for everyone.


We want our customers to feel secure when buying a used BMW from us. These cars are equipped with advanced safety technology that keeps an eye on the road even when it's hard for you to do so.


Whether it's a busy day in Markham or a long trip, these systems offer peace of mind by watching out for potential risks and helping prevent accidents before they happen. Come visit us at Eastside Chevrolet Buick GMC Corvette and see how our used BMWs with these smart safety features can bring confidence to your drive.


Adaptive Cruise Control


Moving from Lane Departure Warning and Lane Keeping Assist, we turn our attention to Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC). This feature takes cruise control to the next level. It uses sensors and radar to keep a safe distance from the car in front.


If that car slows down, your used BMW will automatically slow down too. You won't have to touch the brake or gas.


With ACC, driving on Markham roads becomes less stressful.


Our team at Eastside Chevrolet Buick GMC Corvette recommends looking for this feature in your next used BMW. It not only makes highway driving easier but also safer by reducing the chance of rear-end collisions.


Plus, it's perfect for long drives outside of Markham where you want peace of mind on open roads.


Emergency Braking Systems


Emergency Braking Systems are key for keeping drivers safe on the road. They work by automatically hitting the brakes when a crash might happen. This means if something unexpected pops up in front of your used BMW, the car reacts fast to stop or slow down, lowering the chance of a crash.


It's smart tech that watches out for you.


At Eastside Chevrolet Buick GMC Corvette, we know how important safety is for our customers in Markham. That's why we're proud our used BMWs come with Emergency Braking Systems. These systems not only help keep you safer but can also cut down on insurance costs.


Safety and savings? Now that's a win-win.

Surround View Cameras


Surround view cameras in used BMW models give drivers a bird's eye view of the car. This makes parking and tight maneuvers easier and safer. At Eastside Chevrolet Buick GMC Corvette, we value technology that boosts your confidence on Markham roads.

Our team believes in safety for every driver in Markham. With surround view cameras, you can spot pedestrians, curbs, or other vehicles when moving in or out of a space. This feature is key for busy city driving and cramped parking lots.


We make sure each used BMW has top-notch tech to keep you safe.


Automatic Parking Assist


Moving from surround view cameras, BMW's Automatic Parking Assist takes the stress out of parking. This system scans for suitable spots and guides the car into them. You won't have to handle the steering wheel or pedals during this process.


And with Remote Control Parking from the My BMW App, you can even park your vehicle without being inside it.


At Eastside Chevrolet Buick GMC Corvette in Markham, we know how busy our roads get. That's why we're excited about features like Automatic Parking Assist in used BMWs. It’s perfect for tight city spaces and makes parking simple and safe.


Our team is here to show you how this technology works in person, making sure your next vehicle fits perfectly into your life—literally!


Night Vision with Pedestrian Detection


BMW's Night Vision with Pedestrian Detection is a top safety feature for drivers in Markham. It uses thermal imaging to see in the dark better than your eyes can. This system spots people walking and warns you, so you can stop in time if needed.


Our team at Eastside Chevrolet Buick GMC Corvette believes this technology gives drivers peace of mind on roads after sunset.


At Eastside Chevrolet Buick GMC Corvette, we know that driving at night comes with challenges. That's why we're excited about BMW's Night Vision with Pedestrian Detection. It offers an extra layer of safety by alerting drivers to hazards that are hard to see, says Bessie Vavaroutsos, Vice President of Operations.
