Dacia’s My Safety control lets drivers reapply saved preferences for selected driver-assistance features with two consecutive presses, avoiding repeated trips through vehicle menus. The feature is used on Dacia and Renault models, although the exact systems it manages vary by vehicle and trim.
The profile, called My Safety Perso, must be configured while the vehicle is stationary. Depending on the model, it can cover the audible speed-limit warning, lane-departure prevention, alerts for driver vigilance, fatigue and distraction, and blind-spot warnings.

- Lane-departure prevention
- Driver vigilance, fatigue and distraction alerts
- Blind-spot warning
Dacia’s manual says the saved profile can disable certain functions within this group. A single press returns the vehicle to its “All On” mode.
The shortcut does not permanently override systems subject to mandatory reactivation. Under European rules, intelligent speed assistance may be switched off by the driver but must reactivate whenever the vehicle is started. My Safety retains the driver’s saved choices, so the profile can be restored with the same two presses after startup.

Adt made the comment while discussing the cost of European regulatory compliance, which Dacia says accounts for a quarter of its research and development budget. The feature’s appeal is its ability to restore saved preferences quickly while leaving the required startup behavior intact.
