Road Departure Mitigation System - Honda Accord 2020 Manual

Road Departure Mitigation System

Alerts and helps to assist you when the system detects a possibility of your vehicle
unintentionally crossing over detected lane markings and/or leaving the roadway
altogether.
■
How the System Works
The system cancels assisting operations when you turn the steering wheel to avoid
crossing over detected lane markings.
The front camera behind the rearview mirror
monitors left and right lane markings (in white
or yellow). If your vehicle is getting too close
to detected lane markings without a turn
signal activated, the system, in addition to a
visual alert, applies steering torque and alerts
you with rapid vibrations on the steering
wheel, to help you remain within the detected
lane.

is insufficient to keep your vehicle on the
roadway, it may apply braking.

markings are solid continuous lines.

Mitigation system has limitations.
Over-reliance on the Road Departure Mitigation system
may result in a collision. It is always your responsibility to
keep the vehicle within your driving lane.
The Road Departure Mitigation system only alerts you
when lane drift is detected without a turn signal in use.
The Road Departure Mitigation system may not detect
all lane markings or lane or roadway departures;
accuracy will vary based on weather, speed and lane
marker condition. It is always your responsibility to safely
operate the vehicle and avoid collisions.
