BMW 5 Series: Cross Traffic Alert
The Cross Traffic Alert was used for the first time in the G12. This warning
assists the driver when

difficult to see the
traffic, such as at blind entrances and exits.
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the Cross Traffic Alert is available in the

either from the front or
rear (depending on the vehicle equipment). The driver is made aware or, if
necessary, warned of cross
traffic by the Cross Traffic Alert when maneuvering out of a parking space or
