How To Use Lexus Dynamic Radar Cruise Control and Lane Tracing With Lexus Safety System+ 3.0

This video teaches you how to use Dynamic Radar Cruise Control and Lane Tracing on a Lexus with Lexus Safety System+ 3.0. Currently this system is offered on the Lexus NX, Lexus NX Hybrid, Lexus NX Hybrid+ and all new 2023 RX models.

If you have an older Lexus equipped with Lexus Safety Sense, you can watch this older how-to video I made about these systems here:

I bought a NX used and i was very confused about that adaptive cruise control. Thanks for the great explanation! 👌🏾

I have a 2024 RX 350 bought two months ago, but until I watch your instruction today, I was very confused of which button does what on the right side of my steering wheel. Thank you for your great contribution. Lexus should pay you for your free teaching to their car buyers! The “experts” at their dealership could not do a better job than you did!

Thank you for this video. Our Lexus dealer gave us a 2025 NX 250 loaner with no user manual and only instructions on how to start, put in drive/reverse, and shutoff. We were completely clueless about the adaptive cruise mode. Great video!

I've been looking for a video to explain the cruise control on my 2025 nx 350h. This is the only one I could find that explains properly. Thank you so much great video

Got a 2024 Lexus GX 550, and couldn't figure this out at all. Thanks!

Very helpful thank you.

I encountered a situation which I had not prepared for, so for 10 or 15 seconds I was speeding around a tight curve, a very uncomfortable and potentially dangerous situation.

I was in heavy traffic with the Cc set at 90 kph. I was in the left lane. The right lane became clear, so I changed into the right lane.

As I was changing I noted the speed limit dropped from 90 to 60 kph, at the beginning of a tight uphill turn. The sign was at the apex of the curve, so not prominent. Nor was there a warning of the change.

I was driving a RX350 F Sport, and had selected Sports Plus mode. The radar noted the clear road ahead, so accelerated to 90 kph. The acceleration was ferocious, and the feeling was like a roller coaster.

I focussed on staying in my lane, and could not touch the brake to shut down the CC. WHEEE! WOWEE! Glad the steering and suspension was tight, and not at all floaty or boaty.

When the road straightened I shut down CC.

Today I am revising the CC videos, as it was a very nasty surprise, and could have easily become a disaster. I have discussed the near accident with my wife, so it becomes a learning experience

I have vowed to be vigilant, actively looking for changes in the speed limits. The situation was a sudden change from rural, with no warning of a change in speed limit, as is usually the case. This is in Sydney Australia.

nicely done explanation: you keep emphasizing safety and control of the system!

[JasonL_Hawaii]

Have you been rear-ended by another car due to DRCC hard braking on traffic stops or cars suddenly cutting in front of you?

[sharonbenfield]

Can you use lane assist without using cruise control?

[ibz.a]

Didnt the new RXs have a touch sensitive wheel controls? how does one option physical buttons like this RX?

[HighYieldDividendDragon]

My car resumes ( accelerates) speed too slowly. Can I adjust this?

[JimHertel-bblp]

How does the optional traffic jam assist relate or integrate with the radar cruise control?

[REXOB]

Thanks for the video. Lexus' owners manual isn't very clear on this.

[freeduckie]

If a car tries to merge into the lane of this car and doesn't check the blindspot, will the Lexus brake to avoid collission?

[annmullinix]

Somehow my system did turn off and I need to know how to turn the dynamic radar mode on again.

Great video! I am just wondering how to change from regular cruise control mode to adaptive WHILE driving the 2024 NX350h? When I press the Cruise Cont. mode button while driving, the screen tells me that I can't use this feature while I am driving. I'd rather not use it in the town but yes on the highway. There has to be a way to enable and disable during operation. Any thoughts? Also, how do I turn off the automatic braking.... or is this part of the adaptive cruise control.. I am confused.

I recently purchased a 2014 LS500. The adaptive cruise control works beautifully with one exception. I keep getting the red steering wheel on my HUD telling me to put my hands on the wheel, even though my hands are on the wheel.. I tried different postitions to place my hands, even squeezing the wheel. It still comes on and is driving me crazy. I went to my Lexus dealer and talked with the technolgy guy and was told he would investigate. Do I have a bad connection to the steering wheel? Have you heard of this problem?

[renantebarroga]

Hi i just got a 2024 Lexus NX350...I am not using the dynamic cruise control...but it automatically stops when you are in a stop light when a car is in front of me. The problem is the braking is too early, how do I change that?

[clivealincoln]

Thank you for a concise description of this feature. Will this be the same on the RZ450e?
