DGT Exam Focuses on AEB Emergency Braking System

Madrid, Spain – The Directorate-General for Traffic (DGT) continues to emphasize the importance of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) in its driving examinations. A recent question from the official DGT test, highlighted by Autoescuela Alameda, focused on the AEB (Urban and Interurban Emergency Braking) system. The question, presented as part of the theoretical driving exam, asked candidates to identify the function of the AEB system. The correct answer, as explained by the driving school, defines AEB as "a system that alerts the driver about the proximity of pedestrians or vehicles in emergency situations." This technology is designed to help prevent or mitigate collisions by automatically applying brakes if the driver fails to react in time. Driving instructors note that understanding such safety features is crucial not only for passing the exam but also for promoting safer driving practices on both urban streets and interurban roads.
