Abstract

A host vehicle including a plurality of sensors communicably coupled to the host vehicle. Additionally, the host vehicle includes processing circuitry configured to map-match a location of the host vehicle while the host vehicle is operating on a highway, receive obstruction information from the plurality of sensors, the plurality of sensors having a predetermined field of view corresponding to a host vehicle field of view, estimate a driver field of view based on the host vehicle field of view, determine whether a speed of the host vehicle is safe based on the driver field of view and the obstruction information, and modify driver operation in response to a determination that the speed of the host vehicle is not safe based on the driver field of view.
