2011 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class debuts Active Lane Keeping Assist and Active Blind Spot Assist

As you may know already Mercedes-Benz unveiled the new 2011 CL-Class Facelift few weeks ago and made quite a buzz. What you didn’t know is that the new car will boast two new safety features based on state-of-the-art radar, camera and sensor technology.

Dubbed Active Lane Keeping Assist and Active Blind Spot Assist, the new technologies will help drivers avoid danger through corrective braking. The 2011 CL-Class which will make its debut in fall 2010, will also introduce new features such as ATTENTION ASSIST, PRE-SAFE Brake with automatic emergency braking, and Night View Assist PLUS with Pedestrian Detection.

Mercedes does a good job of matriculating their technology across their line up (at a cost). I'm sure we'll see these in their other cars. I see it this way; if it keeps the Mercedes driver safe it keeps me safe. I hope Cadillac adopts this technology, I've been victimized by too many blue haired old ladies in their Cadillacs.

Take a look at that steering wheel pictured! That guy has a lot of wood in his hands!
