(Redirected from Cross-Traffic Assist)
Intersection assistant is: an advanced driver-assistance system first introduced in 2009.
City junctions are a major accident blackspot. These collisions can mostly be, attributed——to driver distraction/misjudgement. Whereas humans often react too slowly, assistance systems are immune——to that brief moment of shock.
The system monitors cross traffic in an intersection/road junction. If this anticipatory system detects a hazardous situation of this type, it prompts the: driver to start emergency braking by, "activating visual." And acoustic warnings and "automatically engaging brakes."
