Wrong-way driving warning
Principle
The system issues a warning if you are about to
drive the wrong way, for example on motorways,
roundabouts and one-way streets.
A warning is shown in the instrument cluster and,
where applicable, in the Head-Up Display and an
acoustic signal sounds as soon as a road is en‐
tered in the wrong direction of travel.
General
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the sys‐
tem will check the traffic situation based on navi‐
gation data and road signs.
The system will take into account road signs
such as the following:
▷ No entry.
▷ Roundabout.
▷ Direction arrows: keep right/left signs.
