fog, heavy spray, greatly varying light condi‐
tions or strong shadows on the carriageway.

R
direct sunlight or reflections.

The windscreen is dirty, misted up, damaged
R
or covered in the vicinity of the camera, e.g.
by a sticker.
No, or several, unclear lane markings are
R
present for one lane, or the markings change
quickly, e.g. in a construction area or junc‐
tions.
The lane markings are worn away, dark or
R
covered up, e.g. by dirt or snow.
The distance to the vehicle in front is too
R
small and the lane markings thus cannot be
detected.
