Abstract
A blind zone mitigation system of a host vehicle comprises i) at least one sensor that determines position information of a target vehicle with respect to the host vehicle, and ii) an active lane positioning module. The active lane positioning module receives the position information from the at least one sensor and determines a blind zone of the target vehicle. The active lane positioning module, in an active lane position mode, accelerates the host vehicle to move the host vehicle out of the blind zone of the target vehicle or decelerates the host vehicle to move the host vehicle out of the blind zone of the target vehicle.
