A distracted driver notification system, a vehicle and a method of notifying a distracted driver. The system includes a communication system made up of one or both of an antenna and numerous sensors such that the communication system acquires data that is indicative of actual or expected vehicular movement in a traffic situation. The acquired data is conveyed to a computer for processing to determine if a traffic situation is present, as well as a change in status of such situation. The acquired or processed data may also be used to determine if a driver should be moving the vehicle in response to a change in the status of the traffic condition. A human-machine interface may include one or more of visual, haptic and audio configured to alert a distracted driver to start moving a vehicle that is equipped with the system, the alert based on a change in status of the traffic situation as acquired by the communication system and processed by the computer where such change is conducive to the movement of the vehicle, the system configured such that such alert is not provided when the vehicle is not in a traffic situation.
