Safety
See and be seen
Light is fundamental to driving. It is the first and only part of the safety circle that proactively helps prevent accidents. At Philips automotive lighting we promote safety through better visibility and illumination of the road. This means all road-users are seen sooner by others and can themselves see further to avoid potential hazards.

Philips promotes safety through better visibility and illumination of the road.
Night and poor visibility: 84% higher risk* of serious accidents
Our eyes need light to see. When driving, seeing the road, other road-users, obstacles and animals is what keeps us safe. Seeing allows us to act, react and decide. Better lighting lets drivers and road-users see more, sooner and more clearly – and thus adapt to the situation.
*In accidents involving personal injury, the proportion of fatally injured car occupants and pedestrians is increased by an average of 84% when visibility is restricted.

With increasing age, you need more light to counter balance the following challenges
- Poorer color perception and diminished contrast
- Increased sensitivity to glare
- Difficulty evaluating distances
- Fatigue
