as fog or heavy precipitation.
▷ When detecting poorly lit road users such as
pedestrians, cyclists or horse riders or car‐
riages and when trains or ships are close to
the road, or when animals are crossing the
road.
▷ On tight bends, on steep brows or hollows of
hills, when there is crossing traffic or if the
view of oncoming vehicles on a motorway is
obstructed.
▷ In poorly lit towns or where there are highly
reflective signs.
▷ If the area of windscreen in front of the rear-
view mirror is covered with condensation, dirt,
stickers, labels, etc.
