Abstract
A vehicular control system for a vehicle includes a plurality of sensors disposed at the vehicle and having respective fields of sensing exterior of the vehicle. A control includes a processor that is operable to process sensor data captured by the sensors. The control, responsive at least in part to processing of sensor data captured by the sensors, determines a rearward approaching vehicle rearward of the equipped vehicle and traveling at a speed greater than the equipped vehicle. The control determines a speed of the equipped vehicle and the control determines a speed of the determined rearward approaching vehicle. At least in part responsive to determination of the rearward approaching vehicle, the control controls the equipped vehicle to accelerate the equipped vehicle to at least the determined speed of the determined rearward approaching vehicle.
