with a speed differential of approx. 10 km/h
(6 mph). If the vehicle is passing at a consid-
erably higher speed, no indication will be dis-
played.
The faster a vehicle approaches, the sooner
an indication will be displayed in the exterior
mirror, because Side Assist takes into account
the different in speed compared to other ve-
hicles. Thus even though the distance from
the other vehicle is identical, the indication
will appear sooner in some cases and later in
others.
Physical limitations inherent to the system
In some situations the lane departure warning
may not interpret the traffic situation correct-
ly. I.e. in the following situations:
●
on tight bends;
●
in the case of lanes with different widths;
● in areas with significant gradient changes;
●
in adverse weather conditions;
●
in the case of special constructions to the
side of the vehicle, e.g., high or irregular divid-
ers.
