Moin together! It was discussed at last often about the pros and cons of distance tempomat/brake assistant/collision warners… An important detail for me I have not yet mentioned, even in a current V60 operating manual not! Scenario: – Volvo equipped with driving chassis package cruist on highway. ACC/brake assistant suddenly lights up “red” and strikes alarm “Running danger!!!einself!”. – But man/driver sees: THAT IS NOTHING. The system SPINNT ! – *Behind the Volvo there is a ten-ton truck. – Would the high-tech vehicle start a braking, although VORM vehicle is nothing (= system error), but clearly HINTERM Volvo is in danger of trouble, the Assi system would provoke an accident and not avoid… Question – unfortunately my friend also did not have a safe answer: Can such a situation be overruled without idiots – e.g.: hearty pressure on the accelerator instead of the brake. the Volvo philosophy about such automatic systems is/was to intervene ONLY if the driver obviously does not do anything. Would he do something, and the opposite of what the automatic just thinks is right, the box would have to follow the driver again… ….or? As I said, in the current V60 guide I have been looking for exactly this question but unfortunately did not find an answer. For every info grateful next year is the order of a new potentially family-friendly company car, currently hot candidate is the V70 D3 with just OnCall + driving assistance package… mirv
