6-2. Using the safe driving support functions
Proactive driving assist
PDA (Proactive Driving Assist)
When a detectable object
(P.302) is detected, the proac-
tive driving assist operates the
brakes and steering wheel to help
prevent the vehicle from approach-
ing too close to the object.
WARNING
■
For safe use
Driving safely is solely the responsibility
of the driver.
●
The proactive driving assist is designed
to provide some assistance for regular
braking and steering operations, as
well as helping to prevent the vehicle
from approaching too close to a
detectable object. However, the scope
of this assistance is limited.
The driver should perform brake and
steering operations as necessary. Read
the following items carefully. Do not
overly rely on the proactive driving assist
and always drive carefully. (P.304)
System operating conditions and detectable objects
According to the driving conditions, the operation and detectable objects of the
proactive driving assist will change as follows.
●
The proactive driving assist is not a sys-
tem which reduces the amount of
attention necessary for safe driving.
Even if the system is operating cor-
rectly, the surrounding conditions as
recognized by the driver and detected
by the system may differ. It is necessary
for the driver to pay attention, assess
risks, and ensure safety. Over-reliance
on this system to drive the vehicle
safely may lead to an accident result-
ing in death or serious injury.
Proactive driving assist is not a system
●
which allows for inattentive driving and
is not a system which assists in poor
visibility conditions. The driver is solely
responsible for paying attention to
their surroundings and driving safely.
