Rear-end crashes are one of the most frequent types of traffic accidents. As a response, in order to assist the drivers, Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) are being developed; particularly, Collision Avoidance Systems (CAS). Current CAS algorithms are commonly based on very simplified models of the preceding vehicle motion, under the assumptions of constant velocity or constant acceleration. This leads to several issues in the prediction of the lead vehicle behavior, and at the end, in the evaluation of the potential collision hazard.
