On motorways, the Steering and Lane Control Assistant in BMW X3 can also help the driver to guide the car in situations where the lane narrows. The Active Navigation function detects when the vehicle needs to change lane in order to take a motorway exit and keep to the calculated route, and sets up the lane change. The system also features the Lane Keeping Assistant with active side collision protection. In Germany, traffic light recognition is also available when Active Cruise Control (ACC) is in use. The automatic Speed Limit Assist for BMW X3 and route monitoring functions available when using Active Cruise Control add to the car’s Level 2 automated driving capabilities, as defined by SAE international standard J3016. Speed limits along the route detected either by the Speed Limit Info system or by using data from the navigation system can be anticipated in advance with the help of automatic Speed Limit Assist. Meanwhile, the route monitoring function also looks ahead to reduce the car’s speed as appropriate when approaching a corner, a roundabout, a junction or an exit. 00:00 BMW X3 G45 Driving Assistant Professional 00:13 Turning the Adaptive Cruise Control with Lane Control Assistant 00:44 Red steering wheel icon: the driver has to keep his hands on the steering wheel 03:31 Automatic start in a traffic jam 03:55 Traffic Jam Assist in a city 06:04 Lane Change Assist 07:08 Highway assist 10:40 Motorway driving assistant plus 12:15 Tight corner 13:46 Multilane road in a city 15:46 Heavy city traffic BMW X3 Autonomous driving 18:32 Crossroads automated driving 18:51 Urban driving with adaptive cruise control 19:35 Narrow lane, roadworks 20:19 Stationary vehicle in front 20:55 Automated driving in town
