DRIVER SUPPORT
309
WARNING
•
The "City Safety in crossing traffic" func-
tion is supplementary driver support
intended to improve driving safety – it
cannot handle all situations in all traffic,
weather and road conditions.
•
Warnings and brake interventions due to
a collision risk with an oncoming vehicle
often come very late.
•
Never wait for a collision warning or for
City Safety to intervene.
•
City Safety is not a substitute for the driv-
er's attention and judgment. The driver is
always responsible for ensuring the vehi-
cle is driven in a safe manner, at the
appropriate speed, with an appropriate
distance to other vehicles, and in accord-
ance with current traffic rules and regula-
tions.

Limitations of City Safety in
crossing traffic
In certain situations, it may be difficult for City
Safety to help the driver avoid a collision with
crossing traffic.
For example:
•
on slippery roads when Electronic Stability
Control (ESC) is actively operating
•
if an approaching vehicle is detected at a late
stage
•
if the oncoming vehicle is partially obstructed
by another vehicle or object
•
if the oncoming vehicle's headlights are off
•
if the oncoming vehicle is moving erratically
and e.g. suddenly changes lanes at a late
stage.
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera unit,
which has some general limitations – see the
section "Camera unit limitations".
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's radar unit,
which has some general limitations – see the
section "Radar unit limitations".
