Sidesafe, cyclist & pedestrian detection system
Prices exclude VAT
Many accidents occur when a vehicle is turning left and a cyclist, pedestrian or object on the nearside cannot be seen. Incidents like these can be avoided by utilising the SideSafe® system. SideSafe® warns the driver with a red, amber or green proximity alert from any area of the vehicle you choose. A simple “vehicle turning left” audio warning might not give a cyclist or pedestrian enough time to get out of the way. An audio and visual warning to the driver, who can respond accordingly, is much more effective. The SideSafe® System has four ultrasonic sensors mounted on the nearside of the vehicle and a warning system inside the cab. When the vehicle slows to any designated speed, the system automatically activates and will safeguard that area. If a pedestrian, cyclist or object is detected, the traffic light LED display warns the driver visibly. As the distance drops to less than 400mm, an audio alert will also warn the driver.
