front assist

[chrisluciofg]

i ran into a car in front that braked suddenly. said car was in the 10 o’clock position (rather than straight ahead). anyone know if front assist is meant to operate at that angle ?

I believe iit should have been. It brakes definitely when car is slowing down ahead in the another line, but lines are not marked (camera cannot separate the lines). The same 10 oclock (2 oclock here).

Front assistt is a tricky thing. Mine has couple of times reacted to the pedestrians bridge on a motorway for example.

Pretty relevant,

What was the actual speed of the car infront and your car before it came to a stop and how far behind it were you?

Were you not paying attention so driving without due care and attention?

Well by the looks of the photo you shared to the local facebook group, it seems that you've hit the car at a 45deg angle if the only damage was to your headlights and the front of your fender. So there's not much chance that the emegency braking would've worked 100% as intended.

Not sure about front assist but I know you're supposed to.
