A vehicular communication system includes a wireless communication device disposed at an equipped vehicle and operable to wirelessly communicate with other vehicles near the equipped vehicle. A control includes electronic circuitry and associated software. The control, responsive to receiving an indication of an impending lane change or turn by the equipped vehicle, generates an alert and the wireless communication device communicates the alert to at least one other vehicle within a threshold distance of the equipped vehicle. The wireless communication device may receive from another vehicle remote from the equipped vehicle an alert of an impending lateral movement by the other vehicle, and may, responsive to determining that the other vehicle is within a threshold distance of the equipped vehicle, display that alert on a display device disposed within the equipped vehicle and viewable by a driver of the equipped vehicle.
