Volvo XC90: Driver support / Limitations of City Safety in crossing traffic
In certain situations, it may be difficult for City Safety to help the driver
avoid a collision with crossing traffic.
For example:
On slippery roads when Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is actively operating.
- If an approaching vehicle is detected at a late stage.
- If the oncoming vehicle is partially obstructed by another vehicle or object.
- If the oncoming vehicle's headlights are off.
- If the oncoming vehicle is moving erratically and e.g. suddenly changes
lanes at a late stage.
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera and radar sensor, which has certain
general limitations.
City Safety1 can assist the driver when turning into the path of
an oncoming vehicle in an intersection.
Sector in which City Safety can

City Safety steering assistance can help the driver steer away from a vehicle/obstacle
when it is not possible to avoid a collision by braking alone. City Safety steering
assistance is always activated and cannot be switched off...
