According to Mercedes, the speed restriction is mostly due to government regulation, as Drive Pilot is currently designed for high-traffic settings.
Drive Pilot is said to take into consideration elements like the route profile, events occurring on the route and traffic signs. Mercedes says it can also react to unexpected traffic situations and handle them independently – for example, making evasive maneuvers within the lane or braking. Drive Pilot-equipped vehicles also have redundant steering and braking actuators as well as a redundant on-board electrical system. As a result, the system remains maneuverable even if one of these systems fails and a safe handover to the driver can be ensured.
