Can you turn off automatic braking?

The automatic braking system can indeed be deactivated, but the specific procedure varies by vehicle model. Typically, this can be accomplished either through the vehicle settings menu on the central display or via physical buttons on the steering wheel. For most vehicles, the automatic braking deactivation function can be located under the "Driver Assistance" or "Safety Settings" options in the vehicle settings menu. Certain models feature a dedicated button labeled "Auto Brake Off". As automatic braking serves as a crucial active safety feature that significantly reduces collision risks, prolonged deactivation is not advised except for specific circumstances (such as professional track use or particular road conditions). Since operational specifics may differ across manufacturers, consulting the vehicle's owner's manual is strongly recommended to ensure proper and safe operation.
