Abstract

A time to collision is determined between a turning host vehicle and each of a plurality of targets. Based on a lateral distance and a longitudinal distance, a minimum distance is determined between the turning host vehicle and each of the plurality of targets. A threat number is determined for each target selected based on the time to collision and the minimum distance. A vehicle component is actuated based on the threat number.
