BMW 5 Series: Intersection Warning
BMW 5 Series G30 2016-2026 Training Manual / Driver Assistance Systems / Intersection Warning
Intersections are some of the most likely points for accidents in urban traffic. Statistics tell us that approximately one accident in three, with injury to persons, occurs at an intersection. Accidents here can largely be attributed to distraction or poor estimation by the drivers.
The Intersection Warning is installed for the first time in the G30 and can make a major contribution to safety.
The driver is warned both visually and audibly in the event of a risk of a collision with crossing traffic.
This can significantly reduce the likelihood of an accident or even the severity of an accident at intersections.
Intersection Warning is an integral part of the Active Driving Assistant Plus, optional equipment (OE 5AT).
