Nobody ever killed in an XC90 in the UK? - Page 4

Actually, you either mistakenly or intentionally left out a part of the quote from the manual

"City Safety™ detects most vehicles that are either stationary or moving in the same direction as the driver’s vehicle, as well as vehicles described in the "City Safety in cross traffic" section."

https://www.volvocars.com/uk/support...th-city-safety

Also from the XC90 (and alll other Volvos equipped with CitySafety..) manual:

"City Safety can help the driver when crossing the path of another oncoming vehicle at an intersection.

For City Safety to detect an oncoming vehicle on a collision course, the oncoming vehicle must first enter the sector (1) in which City Safety can analyse the situation."

https://www.volvocars.com/uk/support...-cross-traffic

The sector shown in the picture clearly explains why CitySafety wouldn't/couldn't be triggered by traffic passing in the opposite lane.

Oh and the video is an official Volvo XC40 marketing material- here's a link to a Volvo yt channel: https://youtu.be/bKhdr1n4NL0 Do let them know that you find it misleading and dangerous.
