Abstract
Vehicles and methods for utilizing a vehicle sensor network are provided. A subject vehicle may include a communication component configured to establish a connection with a connectable vehicle when a distance to the connectable vehicle falls below a threshold. The communication component may be further configured to receive a detection alert from the connectable vehicle detecting that an event is or will be occurring. The subject vehicle may further include an operational component configured to modify operation of the subject vehicle based on the detection alert.
