Claim 9:
10. A method for determining and utilizing vehicle safety distance and speed information, comprising:
receiving and formulating detected road friction data from one or more on-board vehicle sensors related to detected road friction in the proximity of a vehicle and predicted road friction data from one or more vision/perception vehicle sensors related to predicted road friction ahead of the vehicle;
determining a safety distance based on a determined function of the detected road friction and the predicted road friction, a safety speed, a warning distance based on a determined function of the predicted road friction, and a warning speed of the vehicle with respect to another vehicle or an object taking into account the detected road friction data and the predicted road friction data; and
presenting the warning speed to a driver of the vehicle.
