Volkswagen Donates 70 University Scholarships
This past December, Volkswagen announced its plans to award 70 different scholarships to young refugees that are interested in furthering their education at an accredited university. These plans have been scheduled in recognition of the 70th anniversary of the UN Refugee Convention. Volkswagen cares a great deal about refugee assistance and has worked with the German United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees partner UNO-Flüchtlingshilfe.
Driver distractions are a common cause of accidents. While modern safety features like Front Assist offer a more proactive way to help avoid collisions, some drivers may choose to disable them. Front Assist is designed to assist in preventing forward collisions by using radar sensors and/or a camera to monitor the speed and distance of vehicles ahead.
