The system may be impaired or may not func-
tion if:
R
there is poor visibility, e.g. due to insuffi-
cient illumination of the road, or due to
snow, rain, fog or spray

there is glare, e.g. from oncoming traffic,
the sun or reflection from other vehicles
(e.g. if the road surface is wet)

the windscreen is dirty, misted up, dam-
aged or covered, for instance by a sticker,
in the vicinity of the camera

present for one lane, e.g. in a construction
area
R
the lane markings are worn away, dark or
covered up, e.g. by dirt or snow

the distance to the vehicle in front is too
small and the lane markings thus cannot be
detected

lanes branch off, cross one another or
merge

the road is narrow and winding

there are highly variable shade conditions
on the road
