Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2006094926A1] In a process for warning the driver of a motor vehicle of a collision danger, objects located in the area before the vehicle on the lane in which the vehicle is travelling are located, and a decision over whether a warning should be issued is made on the basis of a deceleration condition which relates to the vehicle deceleration required to avoid a collision. The process is characterised by the following steps: an evasion condition is checked which relates to the time required for an evasion manoeuvre in relation to the time remaining before a collision; a first warning stage is activated when one of the two conditions, deceleration condition or evasion condition, is satisfied for at least one object, and a second warning stage is activated when the second condition is also met for said object.
