Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS)
What is the typical sequence of action of the Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) system?
Reviewed on 29 Jul 2026
- A Brakes first and warns afterwards
- ✓ Detects the obstacle, warns the driver, then brakes
- C Accelerates to dodge the obstacle
- D Shuts off the engine immediately
Why this is the correct answer
AEB follows three stages: it detects the obstacle with its sensors, warns the driver, and if the driver does not respond in time, it brakes automatically to avoid or reduce the impact.
