Leave Your Distronic Graphic on Your Display
As much as I love the Distronic on my C, one must be very cautiousin using this great app. I leave my Distronic graphic on the display while using this feature because as I had found in separate instants that it did not detect a stationary object like a car stopped for traffic when you approach it. Most of the times it works but it only takes one time to rear-end somebody. You must make sure it detected the objects on your display so leave your Distronic graphic on and monitor itfor safety.

No technology is perfect, for that reason I didn't buy any of the driver aids for my s205 as I'm just as likely to make the mistake as the car and I'll save 1500GBP in the process. My other half is already concerned about the collision assist (the basic one that comes with every model) worrying that a floating carrier bag could well mean the car slams on and causes a crash, doing more harm than good.
