LEAF Certification Practice Test

What triggers the Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection in the 2022 Nissan LEAF?

1. Detection of road signs

2. Monitoring of surrounding traffic patterns

3. Risk of a forward collision with a vehicle or pedestrian

4. Excessive speed while driving

The correct answer is: Risk of a forward collision with a vehicle or pedestrian

The Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) with Pedestrian Detection in the 2022 Nissan LEAF is specifically designed to enhance safety by identifying potential hazards ahead, such as vehicles or pedestrians. This system uses sensors and cameras to monitor the vehicle’s path and conditions around it. When the system detects an imminent risk of collision, whether with another vehicle or a pedestrian, it activates the braking mechanism to help avoid or mitigate the severity of the impact. This capability is crucial in urban environments or areas where pedestrian activity is high. By focusing on the risk of a forward collision with both vehicles and pedestrians, this system directly contributes to preventing accidents and protecting vulnerable road users. The other options, while important aspects of vehicle functionality, do not directly relate to the primary trigger for the AEB with Pedestrian Detection system. Recognition of road signs or traffic patterns may enhance overall driving awareness, while excessive speed might impact the effectiveness of braking, but these factors do not initiate the emergency braking mechanism itself.
