A vehicular driving assist system includes at least one sensor disposed at a vehicle and having a field of sensing exterior of the vehicle. An ECU includes circuitry and associated software, with the circuitry including a data processor for processing sensor data captured by the sensor to detect presence of objects in the field of sensing of the sensor. The ECU, responsive to processing by the data processor at the ECU of sensor data captured by the sensor, determines traffic attributes for a plurality of traffic lanes of a road the vehicle is travelling along. The ECU, responsive to determining the traffic attributes determines a predicted traffic value based on the traffic attributes and an output from a trained prediction model. The ECU, responsive to determining the predicted value, determines a traffic jam probability for at least one traffic lane based on the predicted value and the respective traffic attributes.

A vehicular control system includes a sensor disposed at a vehicle and capturing sensor data. The system, as the vehicle is approaching an intersection and responsive to processing by a processor of sensor data captured by the sensor, detects a cross-traffic threat approaching the intersection and maintains a buffer to store a trajectory of the cross-traffic threat. The system, using the trajectory, determines an intersection point between the vehicle and the cross-traffic threat, determines an arrival time at the intersection point for both the vehicle and the cross-traffic threat, and determines a difference between the arrival time of the vehicle at the intersection and the cross-traffic threat. The system, responsive to determining that the difference between the arrival time of the equipped vehicle at the intersection and the arrival time of the cross-traffic threat is less than a threshold amount, controls a safety system of the vehicle.
