Car saved my bacon yesterday
My new E450 Cab saved me from a potential wreck yesterday!
Someone was entering the road I was driving 50 mph on and they must they have overshot the turn and must have been heading for the right side of my car.
Before I knew what was happening, the car pulled Itself hard to the left, very tightly sinched my seatbelt, and instantly inflated my right seat bolster causing me to be pushed a couple inches away from the right side. The COMAND screen showed a graphic of a potential right side impact.
It was just enough as the car didn’t hit me.
As soon as the event was over, the car released all the safety measures it had triggered and everything went back to normal.
All I can say is WOW.

So glad no impact occurred. It is one of the reasons i buy Mercedes. As i get older i become more aware of just how dangerous driving is and i could never live with myself if i was the cause of major harm to another person.
