Honda Civic Hatchback 2022 Road Departure Mitigation System User Manual
Road Departure Mitigation System
Alerts and helps assist you when the system detects a possibility of your vehicle crossing over detected lane markings, or approaching the outer edge of the pavement (into grass or gravel border) or a detected oncoming vehicle.
How the System Works
The front wide-view camera behind the rearview mirror monitors left and right lane markings in white or yellow, the outer edge of the pavement (bordered by grass or gravel) or detected oncoming vehicles. If your vehicle approaches any detected lane markings, the outer edge of the pavement (bordered by grass or gravel) or a detected oncoming vehicle when the turn signals have not been engaged, the system activates.
- If the system cannot detect lane markings (in white or yellow), no assistance will be provided to avoid approaching oncoming vehicles. In addition to a visual alert, the system assists with steering and alerts you with rapid steering wheel vibrations to help you remain within the detected lane. 2 Settings P. 129
Customized Features P. 374
As a visual alert, the Lane departure message appears on the driver information interface.
Important Safety Reminder
Like all assistance systems, the Road Departure Mitigation system has limitations.
Overreliance on the Road Departure Mitigation system may result in a collision. It is always your responsibility to keep the vehicle within your driving lane.
The Road Departure Mitigation system alerts you when the system detects that you are approaching the outer edge of the pavement (into grass or gravel border), an oncoming vehicle, or drifting into another lane without using a turn signal. The Road Departure Mitigation system may not detect all lane markings or every instance of lane drift. The Road Departure Mitigation system may not detect that you are approaching the outer edge of the pavement (bordered by grass or gravel) or an oncoming vehicle.
The Road Departure Mitigation system may not be able to assist you depending on weather, speed or road conditions. The Road Departure Mitigation system is not activated for about 15 seconds after the engine starts. You can read about handling information for the camera equipped with this system.

The system cancels assisting operations when you turn the steering wheel to avoid crossing over detected lane markings or approaching the outer edge of the pavement (into grass or gravel border) or an oncoming vehicle. If the system operates several times without detecting driver response, the system beeps to alert you.
There are times when you may not notice the Road Departure Mitigation system functions due to your operation of the vehicle, or road surface conditions.

If you have selected Normal or Wide, however, the message will only appear if the vehicle is about to cross over the outer edge of the pavement or oncoming vehicle.
