A DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEM FOR HEAVY-DUTY VEHICLES WITH OVERHANG

An advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) for a heavy-duty vehicle, the ADAS comprising a road geometry determining device (410) arranged to determine a geometry of a road section (450) in a forward direction ahead of the vehicle, and a vehicle motion management (VMM) module (420) configured to predict a swept area (460, 470) by the vehicle when driving in the forward direction, based on a geometric model of the vehicle and on a current vehicle control command (430), wherein the swept area (460, 470) by the vehicle comprises an area traversed by an overhang of the vehicle, the ADAS further comprising a display device (440) configured to illustrate the geometry of the road section (450) and the predicted swept area (460, 470) by the vehicle in dependence of the current vehicle control command (430).
