Side collision warning
Concept
The system helps to avoid imminent side colli‐
sions.
General information
Four radar sensors in the bumpers monitor the
area next to the vehicle in the speed range
from approx. 45 mph/70 km/h to ap‐
prox. 130 mph/210 km/h.
The front camera determines the lane marking
positions.
If, e.g., another vehicle is detected next to the
vehicle and if there is a risk of collision with this
vehicle, the system helps the driver to avoid
the collision via steering intervention.
Safety information

personal responsibility to correctly assess visi‐
bility and traffic situation. There is a risk of an
accident. Adjust the driving style to the traffic
conditions. Watch traffic closely and actively
intervene in the respective situations.◀
Functional requirements
The camera must detect the lane markings for
the side collision warning with steering inter‐
vention to be active.
