+ Anticipation<br />
– Apprehension<br />
Sitting higher means seeing further. But even though you are literally in a better position<br />
for an anticipative driving style, it’s reassuring to know that numerous assistance<br />
systems are also keeping an eye on what’s happening. If you start displaying the<br />
characteristic signs of drowsiness or inattentiveness, for example, you will be<br />
reminded to take a break. You can also benefit from assistance when moving off on<br />
inclines. And during the journey the COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST can prevent<br />
rear-end collisions, as its undivided attention is given to the traffic and the road ahead.<br />
The PRE-SAFE® system can recognise critical situations as soon as they start to<br />
develop and Brake Assist (BAS) is always ready to help deliver the maximum braking<br />
force. Further active assistance systems available as optional extras can also monitor<br />
traffic conditions. The M-<strong>Class</strong> brings together more than 50 years of <strong>Mercedes</strong>-<strong>Benz</strong><br />
safety research to bring you maximum peace of mind. → Page 40–43<br />
