A transportation vehicle with at least one first sensor for capturing environment data, at least one second sensor for capturing transportation vehicle data, a communication module for establishing a data connection with another transportation vehicle, a driving system for automated driving of the transportation vehicle, at least one output element for a visible/audible warning signal, and a control unit. The control unit determines a predicted trajectory of the transportation vehicle, determines a predicted path of the transportation vehicle and receives a predicted trajectory and vehicle geometry data of the other transportation vehicle via the data connection, determines a predicted path of the other transportation vehicle, determines a possible collision of the transportation vehicle with the other transportation vehicle, and in response to a possible collision, outputs a warning signal by the at least one output element and/or carries out an automated driving maneuver by the driving system.
