Detecting a surface irregularity on a surface for a vehicle moving forwardly or rearwardly along the surface, the vehicle having a frame supported by wheels and an implement adjustably coupled to the frame. Two of front and rear steering positions and an implement position are used to determine a path of travel of the vehicle. Surface irregularities of the surface within the path of travel are determined which triggers a warning to the vehicle. The speed of the vehicle can be decreased automatically to stop the vehicle before the vehicle impacts the surface irregularity. A vehicle zone of operation is determined based on the path of travel and a corresponding pair of gridlines is displayed on user interface. The pair of gridlines vary in shape, color, position, and orientation as the path of travel changes. The surface irregularity is illuminated relative to the pair of gridlines on the operator display.
