Monitor object ahead

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 BMW 760Li. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Objects are all vehicles in the same lane. The vehicles on other lanes are of no interest for the Active Cruise Control option.

In the same lane, the vehicle immediately ahead is selected as the object.

With the calculated expected same lane, the lateral deviation of each monitored object to the same lane can be determined.

The radar waves received cannot distinguish between animals, vehicles and traffic signs. In order to prevent incorrect reactions, stationary objects and traffic in the other direction are ignored in the distance control.
