This option gives your S60 an ability to automatically switch between high and low beams when oncoming traffic is detected. There is adaptive cruise control, complete with a collision warning and fully automatic braking that can react faster than you can. There is a similar system for detecting and stopping for pedestrians too. The S60 can also optionally read road signs and put them on the display monitor using its forward mounted camera. The car can also tell if you are unintentionally departing your lane, whether another vehicle is in your blind spot, and even whether you are falling asleep at the wheel.
