Abstract
A method for controlling a vehicle includes providing a plurality of sensors and a control at an equipped vehicle and identifying a driver present in the vehicle and capable of operating the vehicle. When the control is not operating in a driving assist mode and the identified driver is operating the vehicle, and responsive to processing data received at the data processor, a personalized parameter set is created for the identified driver based on how the identified driver operates the equipped vehicle during determined driving conditions. When the control is operating in a driving assist mode, and responsive to a current driving condition of the vehicle, the vehicle is controlled (i) in accordance with the personalized parameter set for the identified driver present in the equipped vehicle and (ii) in accordance with data processing of data captured by at least some of the plurality of sensors.
