SafeStop Assist: Automatic braking for increased safety in traffic

SafeStop Assist stops the bus if the driver is suddenly no longer able to control the vehicle due to unforeseen incidents such as medical emergencies. This prevents accidents by slowing down the vehicle in a controlled manner.

Safety comes first

SafeStop Assist detects when the bus driver is no longer able to actively steer and, if this is the case, can decelerate the bus in a controlled manner until it reaches a standstill.1

Collaboration between various assistance systems

MAN SafeStop Assist uses the MAN ACC Stop & Go Adaptive Cruise Control for controlled braking of the vehicle, and a MAN lane guidance system.

Providing first aid is easier

The system switches on the interior lighting, providing first responders with easier access and a better overview. 1 This allows for improved first aid for drivers and passengers.

Powerful sensors

Cameras and radars are used to detect driving behaviour and the merged data is analysed intelligently to determine the driver’s activity

Integrated assistance systems

The MAN SafeStop Assist combines the capabilities of the MAN ACC Stop & Go Adaptive Cruise Control with additional safety functions, such as Lane Return Assist (LRA) and Traffic Jam Assist (TJA).

Warnstufe 1

Das System erkennt: Der Fahrer reagiert nicht. Es fordert ihn mittels eines Warnsymbols sowie Textmeldung im Display und Vibrieren des Lenkrades dazu auf, wieder das Steuer zu übernehmen.

Warnstufe 2

Reagiert der Fahrer weiterhin nicht, fügt das System haptischen wie optischen Warnungen noch einen Warnton und in der Stärke zunehmende Teilbremsungen hinzu.

Warnstufe 3

Der Fahrer reagiert immer noch nicht. Das System geht von einem Notfall aus, bremst bis zum Stillstand des Busses, aktiviert die Warnblinkanlage, schaltet in den Getriebemodus „N”, legt die elektronische Feststellbremse ein und aktiviert die Innenraumbeleuchtung.
