City Safety steering assistance for evasive maneuver
City Safety steering assistance can help the driver steer away from vehicles or obstacles when a collision cannot be avoided by braking alone.
Your vehicle swerves away
Slow-moving/stationary vehicle or obstacle.
City Safety helps provide assistance by strengthening the driver's steering movements, but only if the driver has begun evasive action and the system detects that the driver's steering movements are not sufficient to avoid a collision.
The brake system is used simultaneously to further strengthen steering movements. The function also helps stabilize the vehicle after it has passed the obstacle.
City Safety steering assistance can detect:
- vehicles
- cyclists
- pedestrians
- large animals
Warning
- The possibility of City Safety predicting a certain situation is supplementary driver support intended to improve driving safety – it cannot handle all situations in all traffic, weather and road conditions.
- City Safety is not a substitute for the driver's attention and judgment. The driver is always responsible for ensuring the vehicle is driven in a safe manner, at the appropriate speed, with an appropriate distance to other vehicles, and in accordance with current traffic rules and regulations.
Activating/deactivating
City Safety's steering assistance is always active and cannot be switched off.
