An auto-stop/start system for a vehicle includes an object identification module, a distance determination module, and an auto-stop/start control module. The object identification module determines a location of an object that is in a path of the vehicle. The distance determination module determines a distance between the vehicle and the location of the object. The auto-stop/start control module selectively disables provision of fuel to an engine of the vehicle while an ignition system of the vehicle is ON based on the distance.
