Vehicle Collision Avoidance System and Method

A system and method for providing an alert warning to a driver comprising a vehicle, said vehicle further comprising a forward facing vehicle sensors,

• said forward facing vehicle sensor operable to detect the presence and relative distance of a forward obstruction in a travel lane immediately in front of said vehicle, and said first vehicle further comprising a processor wherein said processor receives said signal from said forward sensor and processes said signal to determine the speed, acceleration or deceleration of said forward obstruction, and said vehicle further comprising a forward signal receiver, said signal received adapted to receive a signal from a forward obstruction and a rear signal transmitter, said rear transmitter to transmit information relating to said vehicle and said forward obstruction to a following vehicle, and further comprising an driver alert device, wherein said alert is displayed based upon an algorithm run by said processor that uses forward sensor data, speed data and vehicle braking characteristics for said vehicle in the event that a collision is imminent unless evasive action is implemented.
