What is the function of your vehicle’s emergency brake assist?

The emergency brake assist in your vehicle serves to enhance safety in critical situations. It primarily has two key functions: it issues warnings about the immediate risk of a rear-end collision, helping to alert the driver and other road users, and it can reduce the risk of injury in the event of an unavoidable collision by preparing the vehicle for impact.

Both aspects are fundamental according to German traffic regulations, as they aim to prevent accidents and minimize injuries. Understanding these functions is essential for driving safely and being aware of your vehicle's capabilities in emergency situations. Recognizing the importance of each function helps in making informed decisions while driving and potentially avoiding dangerous situations.
