Traffic Jam Assist

The Traffic Jam Assist system uses a radar sensor mounted behind the emblem and
a camera mounted to the interior side of the windshield, behind the rearview mirror
to detect and monitor left and right white or yellow traffic lane lines as well as any
vehicle ahead. Based on inputs from the radar sensor and camera, the system can
adjust the speed of your vehicle to maintain a set interval between your vehicle and
the one detected ahead. It also can apply steering torque to keep your vehicle in the
center of the detected lane when you are driving in heavy traffic.
■
How Traffic Jam Assist works
If you are in heavy traffic and Adaptive Cruise Control with Low Speed Follow is
active, the Traffic Jam Assist system, upon detecting the traffic lane lines and a
vehicle ahead, will apply steering torque to help keep your vehicle in the center of
the lane.
The system adjusts the speed of your vehicle to maintain a set interval between your
vehicle and the one detected ahead.
