Abstract

A system for indicating braking intensity to a main vehicle has an observational device monitoring positional and speed data of at least one vehicle proximate the main vehicle. A control unit is coupled to the observational device. The control unit processes the positional and speed data monitored by the observational device and generates graphical representations of the at least one vehicle proximate the main vehicle and graphical representations of a braking intensity level of the at least one vehicle proximate the main vehicle.
