Method for preventing collision with vehicle located ahead with its side being shown and vehicle control system of same

A vehicle control system comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• a memory storing computer readable instructions, which, by being executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
• recognize whether a front vehicle is a target vehicle which is stopped or slowing down with a lateral side thereof viewed and to determine a road occupancy state of the target vehicle;
• determine a driving situation of a host vehicle;
• determine a collision prevention strategy according to results of the recognition and the determination;
• and
• control at least a warning mean, a steering device, or a braking device according to the collision prevention strategy,
• wherein the computer readable instructions further cause the at least one processor to determine a degree of risk of collision according to a position and a size of the target vehicle, and
• wherein the computer readable instructions further cause the at least one processor to determine a collision overlap or a collision offset according to the position and the size of the target vehicle in determining the risk of the collision, and to determine an index according to collision positions of the target vehicle and the host vehicle.
