  • The emergency brake assist in the new Mercedes-Benz S-Class (2017) can help the driver to avoid a collision when inattentive. In the “Veritasium meets Mercedes-Benz” video series you can watch the latest in auto innovation.
    When it comes to car safety features, the collision avoidance system provides the peace of mind that every driver is searching for. The cross-traffic function can detect approaching intersecting vehicles and persons with the help of a long-range radar used in conjunction with a stereo camera.
    How does the Active Brake Assist work?
    In an emergency situation, the Active Brake Assist warns the driver of the oncoming danger and, depending on the distance and size of the obstacle ahead, sends out an acoustic or visual warning to alert the driver. If the driver reacts in time, the emergency brake assist supports the driver in applying pressure to the brakes, and if the driver reacts too slowly, the automatic braking system will be activated.
    The Active Brake Assist automatic braking system can be activated and deactivated as and when the driver pleases. Additionally, it can be set to one of three modes including “Early”, “Medium” and “Late” mode - each of which determines the sensitivity of the driver assist programme.
    By interpreting your driving behavior, Active Brake Assist provides an intuitive safety measure that will bring your vehicle to a halt or reduce the speed exactly when you need it most. Active Brake Assist is just one of the many Mercedes driver assist features created to provide you with the ultimate security in all your driving endeavors.
    Thanks for Watching!

    And THIS is why I am buying another MB S Class. I want my family to be in the safest car in the world with safety systems that actually work. Many other cars have safety systems that aren't working at all and drivers don't even know it. Awesome video guys!

    Great work from the engineers and programmers at Mercedes. People don't realize the amount of work and the challenges that arise in designing safety systems :)

    Still there is a risk of collision from the car behind me, which happened in my country (Egypt).
    I am looking for an option to turn it off permanently and i couldn’t find, as when I turn it off it goes back to on when I start the engine next time.

    Mercedes ACTIVE BRAKE ASSIST. All the videos and even the user guide says you can change "to desired setting". But there is nowhere where I can find an explanation about DETAILED specific difference between selecting EARLY, MEDIUM, or LATE in the settings and how the vehicle behaves differently depending on each setting. Can Mercedes pls provide detail ? I have a 2022 A250 4 Matic car.

    Where can I find and purchase those balloon cars? I've seen videos where owners use more solid objects, like another person, to showcase the brake assist function. I rather tests mine with the balloon car. Just saying
