Lane Departure Warning Performance Tips

Several factors affect the performance of the lane departure warning system (LDWS). Some conditions may prevent the LDWS feature from detecting lane departures.

  • The LDWS feature provides alerts only when your vehicle speed exceeds 65 km/h (40 mph).

  • The LDWS feature does not provide alerts on certain types of roads, such as highway ramps or merging lanes.

  • The LDWS feature may not function properly if the camera is incorrectly aligned.

  • The LDWS feature may not function properly if the camera placement settings do not correctly indicate your vehicle height or the placement of your device in the vehicle (Aligning the Camera).

  • The LDWS feature requires a clear, continuous view of the lane divider lines.

    • Lane departures may not be detected when divider lines are obscured by rain, fog, snow, extreme shadows, sun or headlight glare, road construction, or any other visual obstruction.

    • Lane departures may not be detected if lane divider lines are misaligned, missing, or heavily worn.

  • The LDWS feature may not detect lane departures on extremely wide, narrow, or winding roads.
