Assistance during collision risks in oncoming traffic
Assistance during collision risks1 can help the driver by providing steering assistance to help prevent collisions with vehicles in oncoming lanes.
When the vehicle veers into oncoming traffic
This function can help a distracted driver who has not noticed that the vehicle is about to veer into a traffic lane moving in the opposite direction.
Oncoming vehicles
Own vehicle
The function is active at speeds between 60-140 km/h (37-87 mph) on roads with clearly visible traffic lane markings/lines.
If your vehicle is starting to veer from your own lane and a vehicle is approaching from the opposite direction, this function can help the driver steer the vehicle back into its own lane.
However, the function will not provide steering assistance if the turn signal is used. The function will also not be activated if it detects that the driver is actively operating the vehicle.
Warning
Warnings and brake interventions due to an imminent collision with an oncoming vehicle always come very late.
Note
The function uses the vehicle's camera and/or radar units, which have certain general limitations.
