Pre-Collision Throttle Management
When an obstacle is detected in front of the vehicle , and the vehicle is stopped or traveling very slowly , if the system determines that the accelerator pedal has been depressed by more than the necessary amount ( due to driver error ), it greatly restricts engine output and ensures that vehicle forward movement is slower than normal in order to give the driver additional time to brake or react .
