9.4 Special driving situations with AEBS
Cornering, entering and exiting corners
Danger.
When the bus is cornering or being driven into or cut
of a corner, AEBS may not always detect vehicles in
front unequivocally. The bus may issue warnings in
response to vehicles detected in a different lane and
braking could be initiated unnecessarily or too late.
For these reasons, pay even closer attention to traffic
conditions when cornering.
Exit sliproads, driving on a different line, hard
shoulders
Danger.
AEBS may not always detect vehicles in front
unequivocally at exit sliproads or where other vehicles pull
out, are driving on a different line or are driving or parked
on the hard shoulder. As a result, you vehicle could be
braked automatically even though the vehicle in front is
only partly in your lane. For these reasons, pay even closer
attention to traffic conditions at exit sliproads or where
other vehicles are driving on a different line or driving or
parked on the hard shoulder.
Entry sliproads, driving on a different line, lane change
