What It Is and How It Works
WHAT IS IT?
Akin to front CMBS, CA provides corrective steering input to ensure the driver safely makes it into the adjacent lane.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
It uses a highly sensitive radar sensor to monitor the distance from the vehicle in front and its relative speed. When the system detects an object in the vehicle path that could pose a collision danger, it prompts the driver to perform avoidance maneuvers by providing visual and audible warnings. If the system determines that the driver is not acting fast enough, it automatically performs the maneuver.
