"Mazda Rear Vehicle Monitoring system (RVM) is a technology designed to assist a driver to avoid dangerous situations or collisions with other road users during a lane change. Two radar sensors, one on either side of the car, are mounted in the rear bumper to measure the distance and relative speed of surrounding vehicles.

At speeds above 60km/h, the system will indicate to the driver if there is a vehicle approaching quickly in a zone up to 50m behind the car, or driving in the so-called ‘blind-spot’. Mazda RVM will continuously monitor rearward traffic for possible critical situations when changing lanes.

An indicator light in the door mirror will warn the driver either if a vehicle might be invisible in the blind spot on that side or if a vehicle will approach this area within 5 seconds. When the driver uses a direction indicator to signal a lane change in such a critical situation, the warning indicator starts to flash and is accompanied by an audible signal.

The system will monitor both sides of the vehicle, so that it will support the driver when he intends to overtake as well as when he is being overtaken, to ensure that the car can be safely returned to its lane. The system works in almost all weather conditions and detects all types of vehicles, including motorcycles."
