Nanny control warning red leds.

[ICU812]

The other day while driving, as I went around a car turning right, a strip of bright red leds flashed at me and warning noise. Crash avoidance warning .
Where are these leds. looked like the top of the dash, but not sure. it was the 1st time they went off, and was a shock..lol
They are bright.
The ranger makes the same noise, but the left screen in the cluster just flashes red with crash warning.

What about the message that shows up on the dashboard informant screen displaying a cup of coffee stating that you might need a rest break. What is that all about.

I was being real, this has happened to me three times and I have never been close to nodding off. This is my third newer Mustang and have never seen this before. 2017/2020/2021.

Is this really a thing?

When it starts to DING LOUDLY, yes.

Yes, and it’s nothing new.

Wonder if it is comes on by time of driving without stopping, or if it is miles driven then .
I haven't driven mine enough or any log drives to have this ever come on.

I was too. The longer you drive without a break the greater the risk of an accident. Long term driving has been shown to greatly reduce situational awareness (think long haul truck drivers).

It might not be a new thing, but first I've heard of it, the ranger never showed that and we drove 21 hours straight non stop other than fuel pit stops.
My jeep is to old to have anything like that, but the 2019 ranger might, but it never did anything like that.
