Real-time collision avoidance in moving vehicles includes initializing a prior collision distribution from a manufacturer's vehicle calibration, receiving driver data acquired from a driver when a vehicle is driven and vehicular data acquired from the vehicle being driven by the driver, determining a conditional collision probability using features derived from the driver data and the vehicular data and a model for the driver, calculating posterior probability collision distribution from the conditional collision probability and the prior collision distribution, and determining a probability of a collision occurring from the posterior probability collision.
