P5-Icon red circle 1: Sector in which City Safety can detect an oncoming vehicle in crossing traffic.

In order for City Safety to detect an oncoming vehicle in situations where there is a risk of a collision, that vehicle must be within the sector in which City Safety can analyze the situation.

The following criteria must also be met:
  • your vehicle's speed must be at least 4 km/h (3 mph)
  • your vehicle must be making a left turn
  • the oncoming vehicle's headlights must be on

 Warning

  • The "City Safety in crossing traffic" function 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 driver's attention and judgment. The driver is always responsible for ensuring the vehicle is driven in a safe manner, at the appropriate speed, with an appropriate distance to other vehicles, and in accordance with current traffic rules and regulations.
