Forward Collision Alert (FCA).
Available as part of the optional Driving
Assistance Pack (SRi, SE and Elite models;
not on Astra Saloon), FCA constantly
shows the distance to the leading vehicle
in the instrument panel, helping you to
maintain a safe distance. In addition,
FCA – active when the car is moving
faster than 30km/h – gives visual and
audible warnings if you approach a
slower-moving vehicle too fast.
Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR).
Utilising the front camera function, this
clever system makes sure you’re
constantly made aware of speed limits,
even when temporary signs are put up.
TSR continually monitors road signs, and
gives you a warning if you unintentionally
stray over the limit. It can even read and
display motorway electronic signs
related to speed limits like rain or snow
warnings. Available as part of the
optional Driving Assistance Pack (SRi,
SE and Elite models; not on Astra Saloon).
Lane Departure Warning (LDW).
LDW uses the front camera system to
recognise lane marking lines, and emits
an audible warning if your vehicle leaves
its lane unintentionally (i.e. without
you signalling), preventing potential
accidents and reminding you of
inattention or tiredness. The LDW system
can be deactivated via a facia switch.
Available as part of the optional Driving
Assistance Pack (SRi, SE and Elite models;
