Safety
With the MAN TGL and TGM, even being stationary is innovative.
With innovative brake technologies, MAN trucks make daily operations as safe as they are feasible. The electronic braking system (EBS) assures superlative braking characteristics in all situations. The ABS with off-road logic can also enhance braking on unsurfaced and slippery ground conditions. The anti-slip control (ASC) and the electronic stability program (ESP) are standard equipment items that improve road safety. As even a brief moment of distraction can lead to an accident, MAN has also developed the anticipatory Emergency Brake Assist (EBA). It gives drivers an advance warning of impending collisions, providing them with valuable time to react. The system automatically initiates braking in an emergency.
Emergency Stopping Signal (ESS)
Instead of the brake lights simply coming on, the Emergency Stopping Signal (ESS) warns the traffic behind of emergency braking via the hazard lights. These flash faster to alert the traffic behind to the emergency. Once the vehicle is stationary, the hazard lights are automatically activated to prevent rear-end collisions. The ESS therefore helps to enhance road safety.
