The detection may be impeded:
System which detects the involuntary crossing
of longitudinal traffic lane markings on the
ground (solid or broken line).
Sensors, fitted below the front bumper, trigger
a warning if the vehicle drifts over a lane
marking (speed higher than 50 mph (80 km/h)).
This system is particularly useful on motorways
and main roads.

Detection
You are warned by the vibration of the driver's
seat cushion:
-
if there is little contrast between the
markings on the ground and the
road surface.
-
on the right-hand side, if the marking on
the ground has been crossed on the right,
on the left-hand side, if the marking on the
ground has been crossed on the left.

The lane departure warning system
cannot in any circumstances replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the
driver.
No warning is transmitted while the direction
indicator is active and for approximately
20 seconds after the direction indicator is
switched off.
It is necessary to observe driving
regulations and take a break every
two hours.
A warning may be transmitted if a direction
marking (e.g. arrow) or non-standard marking
(e.g. graffiti) is crossed.
