Abstract
A vehicle collision avoidance system includes a collision sensor that generates a collision signal indicative of an object in a path of travel of the vehicle. A controller identifies a first side of the vehicle containing a blind spot for an operator of the vehicle. The controller further identifies a potential collision between the vehicle and the object responsive to the collision sensor and the speed of the vehicle and the trajectory of the vehicle. The controller suppresses, or adjusts one or more conditions for, generation of a control signal relating to the potential collision if the vehicle speed and trajectory meet predetermined conditions and the potential collision would occur on a second side of the vehicle opposite the first side of the vehicle.
