Rear Cross Traffic Warning is part of the collision warning system that detects vehicles approaching from the side at the rear of the vehicle while in reverse gear and alerts the
driver. Some systems also warn for pedestrians or other objects.
This series was filmed by the Society of Collision Repair Specialists (www.scrs.com) and I-CAR (www.I-CAR.com) to help consumers better understand the safety systems and functions potentially found on their vehicles, and considerations those systems may contribute to the repair process. Terminology used is common naming, and not meant to replace automaker proprietary system or package names.

These videos were filmed at the I-CAR Chicago Technical Center (CTC).
