DISABLING THE PRE-COLLISION SYSTEM (PCS)
LDA in TSS-P uses an in-vehicle camera designed to detect visible white and yellow
lane markers in front of the vehicle and the vehicle’s position on the road. If the
system determines that the vehicle is starting to unintentionally deviate from its lane,
the system alerts the driver with an audio and visual alert. When the alerts occur, the
driver must check the surrounding road situation and carefully operate the steering
wheel to move the vehicle back to the center part of their lane.
LDA is designed to function at speeds of approximately 32 MPH or higher on
relatively straight roadways.
In addition to the alert function, LDA w/SA also features a steering assist
function. When enabled, if the system determines that the vehicle is on a path to
unintentionally depart from its lane, the system may provide small corrective steering
inputs to the steering wheel for a short period of time to help keep the vehicle in its
lane.

Lane Departure Alert with
Steering Assist function (LDA w/SA)
As part of the Pre-Collision System, this function is also designed to first provide an
alert and then automatic braking if needed.
In certain conditions, the PCS system included with the TSS-P package may also
help to detect a pedestrian in front of your vehicle. With Toyota Safety Sense™ P,
PCS uses an in-vehicle camera and front-grill mounted millimeter-wave radar to
help detect a pedestrian in front of your vehicle in certain conditions. The in-vehicle
camera of PCS detects a potential pedestrian based on size, profile, and motion of
the detected pedestrian. However, a pedestrian may not be detected depending
on the conditions, including the surrounding brightness and the motion, posture,
size, and angle of the potential detected pedestrian, preventing the system from
operating or engaging.
