Swerving vehicles
Cornering
A vehicle driving in front of you is not detected
until it is completely within the same lane as
your vehicle.
If the desired speed is too high for a curve, the
speed is reduced slightly in the curve, although
curves cannot be anticipated in advance.
Therefore, drive into a curve at an appropriate
speed.
If a vehicle driving ahead of you suddenly
swerves into your lane, the system may
not be able to automatically restore the
In tight curves, situations may result due to the

which a vehicle driving ahead of you may not be
detected at all, or not until after a considerable
delay.
