摘要

A method for providing information to a driver of a vehicle includes receiving, at a host vehicle via a wireless electronic communication link, messages that each include remote vehicle information for a respective one of the one or more remote vehicles; identifying host vehicle information for the host vehicle; determining that a potential message occlusion exists based at least in part on the remote vehicle information for the one or more remote vehicles and the host vehicle information; and in response to determining that a potential message occlusion exists, causing a message occlusion alert to be output.
