Detection may be impeded:
- i f the sensors are dirty (mud, snow...),
-

i
f the road markings are not clearly
visible,
-

i
f there is little contrast between the
markings on the road and the road
sur face.Blind spot monitoring
This driving assistance system warns the driver
of the presence of another vehicle in the blind
spot angle of their vehicle (areas hidden from
the driver's field of vision), as soon as this
presents a potential danger. This system is designed to improve safety
when driving and is in no circumstances
a substitute for the use of the interior rear
view mirror and door mirrors. It is the
driver's responsibility to constantly check
the traffic, to assess the distances and
relative speeds of other vehicles and to
predict their movements before deciding
whether to change lane.
The blind spot monitoring system can
never replace the need for vigilance on the
part of the driver.
A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on
the side in question:
- i
mmediately, when being overtaken,
- a fter a delay of about one second, when
overtaking a vehicle slowly.
