MOIS collision information system FLEX according to UN ECE R159
The MOIS collision information system from TruckWarn is a collision assistant developed in accordance with UN ECE R159 and EU Regulation No. 2019/2144 to protect cyclists and pedestrians.
The MOIS approach information system, also known as the ‘Moving Off Information System’, is a technological system that helps drivers to approach safely and efficiently. It was developed to prevent accidents when pulling off and to improve traffic flow.
The MOIS consists of various sensors and cameras that collect information about the vehicle’s surroundings. This data is then analyzed and displayed to the driver in real time. For example, the system can detect obstacles such as pedestrians or other vehicles and warn the driver. It can also provide information about the condition of the road, such as slipperiness or potholes.
The advantages of MOIS are manifold. On the one hand, it contributes to road safety by detecting potential hazards at an early stage and alerting the driver to them. This helps to prevent accidents. On the other hand, the system improves the flow of traffic as it enables the driver to approach faster and more efficiently.
In Germany, there are legal requirements for the use of collision information systems such as MOIS. According to the German Road Traffic Regulations (StVO), it is permitted to use such systems as long as they do not impair road safety. The devices must be set in such a way that they neither distract nor confuse the driver.
It is important to note that the MOIS is only intended as a support for the driver and should not be used as a substitute for the driver’s attention. The driver remains responsible for driving the vehicle safely.
Overall, the MOIS collision information system offers many advantages for drivers and general road safety. By using this technology, accidents can be avoided and traffic flow improved. However, it is important that the system is used responsibly and is not seen as the sole solution for safe driving.

MOIS approach information system ( Moving Off Information System)
The UN ECE R159 regulation was developed by the Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE). It defines the requirements for the collision information system for heavy commercial vehicles. The system is intended to prevent accidents when trucks are turning or pulling away, thereby increasing safety for all road users.
TruckWarn is a company that specializes in the development and implementation of collision information systems. Their system is based on the latest technology and meets all UN ECE R159 requirements.
It can be difficult to see anything directly in front of you, especially in high cabins, due to the limited viewing angle.
TruckWarn’s Move-Off Information System (MOIS) warns the driver if there is a person in the blind spot directly in front of the vehicle.
Our approach information system
The TruckWarn approach information system offers numerous advantages for drivers and other road users. It significantly increases road safety by providing early warning of obstacles or sources of danger. Pedestrians, cyclists and other road users are better protected, as the driver is informed in good time and can react accordingly.
Another advantage of the collision information system is the reduction in the risk of accidents. By detecting potential hazards at an early stage, accidents can be avoided or at least minimized. This contributes to the safety of all road users and helps to prevent damage to people and material.
This is a sensible investment for companies and drivers looking for innovative solutions to prevent accidents and optimize traffic flow.
R159 – MOIS (Moving Off Information System)
The R159 collision aid was introduced to protect vulnerable road users when starting trucks, buses or other heavy commercial vehicles.
Start-off aid: The FLEX MOIS R159 warns the driver of pedestrians and cyclists directly in front of the vehicle when starting off. The warning is issued from a distance of approx. 10 cm.
Collision warning: Weaker road users in the lane are detected and reported in the event of a possible collision.
Collision protection: Warns of people directly in front of the vehicle and also directly in front of the vehicle in the blind spot. This is an important additional protection when pulling away, especially with high cabs.
Collision protection: Warning of cyclists and motorcyclists in the lane where collisions could occur. This is particularly helpful in complex traffic situations.
DashCam function: The system also offers a DashCam function that can be used to record images and videos in compliance with the GDPR. This can also reduce the driver’s workload.
An AI system (artificial intelligence) recognizes the driving situation and actively supports the driver in avoiding accidents.
The system is based on the latest AI technology and can therefore warn more reliably and accurately than a radar system. It even meets the legal requirements.
Suitable for vans, trucks, buses and special vehicles. Retrofitting in any vehicle is unproblematic. The mounting height of the front camera should be between 60 cm and 400 cm.
Possible extension:
- Distance warning + brake assistant for a safe distance to vehicles ahead
- Lane departure warning system, warns of unintentional crossing of lane lines

Summary UNECE R159 – a regulation of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE)
UNECE R159 refers to a regulation of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) regarding vehicle steering systems. This regulation specifies technical requirements and test procedures that vehicles must fulfill in order to be approved in UNECE member countries.
UNECE R159 contains specific regulations for motor vehicle steering systems to ensure their safety and performance. It specifies requirements for steerability, steering wheel play, steering angle limitation and other aspects of steering.
Vehicle manufacturers must ensure that their vehicles comply with the provisions of UNECE R159 in order to obtain approval for sale and operation in the member states. Compliance with this regulation helps to improve road safety and ensure uniform standards for vehicles in different countries.
UNECE R159 is an important part of the international regulations for vehicle safety. It plays a crucial role in ensuring quality standards for vehicle steering systems.
