Abstract
A vehicle warning system includes a wireless communicator and an electronic controller. The wireless communicator is configured to receive data related to an area surrounding a vehicle and a trailer being towed by the vehicle, the data representing points of interest on the vehicle and on the trailer. The electronic controller is configured to determine a travel path of a host vehicle different from the vehicle, and generate a warning signal upon determining that the travel path indicates entry of the host vehicle into the area.
