Hamilton Used Cars: Safety Features


From consumers to automakers to the federal government, vehicle safety is a top priority. If you compare a vehicle from even ten or twenty years ago to one of today it is apparent how far the technology has advanced in a relatively small amount of time. If you look at how many laws having to do with automobiles have been put in effect this decade it is obvious the government is part of the future of vehicle safety. Consumers, too, are much more aware. More people wear seatbelts than ever before. More children are properly secured in a child seat than before. A major concern for consumers when they buy used cars in PA is that it will have up to date safety features. Make sure your vehicle has ABS, front airbags, and seat belt pretensioners, to name a few. A bonus of purchasing a used car from the last few model years means it is likely to have even more features, such a side impact airbags, backup sensors, traction control, crumple zones, even services that automatically notify authorities if the vehicle has been in an accident. When you find a model you are interested in check the ratings of it, there are several different categories vehicles are tested in.

In a rear end collision, the design of a used car's head restraints and seats are critical factors in how severe a whiplash injury will be. Two other important factors are braking and emergency handling. Make sure your used car is sufficient in this area. Blind zones can make it very difficult to see behind your vehicle.  A contributing factor is that some larger vehicles have larger blind zones--the area behind a vehicle that the driver can’t see. It is a good ides to check the blind zone on your used car. Sit in the driver’s seat of the parked vehicle while someone stands in back and holds out a hand at about waist level. Have the person walk back slowly until you can see the hand through the rear window.

The Eisenhower National Historic Site adjoins GNMP on its southwest edge.

Most of Adams County's rural landscapes and its mid-19th century roadway pattern remain intact today. Thirteen historic roadways converge at or near Gettysburg Borough. Two circular rings of towns surround Gettysburg; the first ring is typically found at a distance of about 7 miles from Gettysburg. The second ring is found at a distance of 12 to 15 miles from the County Seat. This "spokes and wheel" pattern represents one of the few examples of Central Place Theory in the Eastern United States. The county is in the watershed of the Chesapeake Bay and is drained by the Susquehanna River and Potomac River. U.S. Route 15 enters Adams County, Pennsylvania south of Gettysburg. Business Route 15 (Emmitsburg Road) goes through Gettysburg, while US 15 bypasses the borough. The bypass continues to York Springs. US 15 then leaves Adams County and passes through Dillsburg in York County. U.S. Route 30, the historic Lincoln Highway passes through Adams County.
