Toyota will add automatic engine shut off and auto-park to all new vehicles

While these may seem like simple safety updates, they are important. Drivers have left their cars on in their garages because they don’t realize the ignition is on, and an auto-park feature may have saved Star Trek actor Anton Yelchin, who was killed in a “rollaway” accident. While Toyota already has visual and audible warnings that alert drivers that the car is on or in gear, these features will go one step further.
