The invention relates to a vehicle detection system (10) for detecting a target vehicle (60) in a detection area (DA) located behind a subject vehicle (50), the vehicle detection system (10) comprising judging means (20) configured to judge whether a target vehicle (60) which has been detected to approach the subject vehicle (50) from behind in a driving lane (DL) being used by the subject vehicle (50) and being covered by the detection area (DA) is an alert object, to output a result of judgement to warning means (30) which warns a driver of the subject vehicle (50) that a target vehicle (60) is present in the driving lane (DL) behind the subject vehicle (50) based on the judging means (20) judging the target vehicle (60) to be an alert object, and to determine, on the basis of a change of a lateral overlap of the target vehicle (60) in the detection area (DA), an overlap change rate which is defined as a ratio of the change of the overlap to a specified time, wherein the judging means (20) is configured to judge the target vehicle (60) to be an alert object or to be not an alert object on the basis of the determined overlap change rate.Moreover, the invention relates to a corresponding method for detecting a target vehicle (60) in a detection area (DA) located behind a subject vehicle (50).
