Abstract:
A system for tracking a following vehicle by a leading vehicle. In one example, the system includes a user interface, a camera, an output device, and an electronic controller. The electronic controller is configured to receive, via the user interface, an indication of the following vehicle and recognize the following vehicle. The electronic controller tracks the following vehicle using a video feed from the camera and determines whether the following vehicle is struggling to follow the leading vehicle. The electronic controller also generates a driver notification when the following vehicle is struggling to follow the leading vehicle and outputs, via the output device, the driver notification.
