(If the system only detects a white (yellow) line on either the left or right the system only operates for a departure in the direction being detected.)
-
The driving lane is neither narrow nor wide.
The LAS&LDWS goes on stand-by status in the following cases:
-
The system cannot detect white (yellow) lane lines.
-
The vehicle speed is less than about 60 km/h (37 mph).
