City Safety assists the driver by continuously trying to determine possible "escape routes" to the sides if a slow-moving or stationary vehicle ahead is detected at a late stage.

City Safety will not trigger the auto-brake function as long as the driver has a chance to avoid a collision by steering the vehicle.
However, if City Safety determines that an evasive steering maneuver is not possible due to a lack of space in the adjacent traffic lanes, the function will attempt to assist the driver by automatically applying the brakes considerably sooner.
Warning
City Safety's capacity to assess certain traffic situations is a supplemental aid to the driver and does not function in all driving/traffic situations or weather/road conditions. It can never replace the driver’s attention to traffic conditions or his/her responsibility for operating the vehicle in a safe manner.
