A method detects a risk of collision between a motor vehicle and a secondary object located in traffic lanes adjacent to the main traffic lane of the vehicle, in the event of a lane change by the vehicle, which involves detecting objects in a predetermined danger zone, and estimating a time-to-collision between the vehicle and a detected object. Detecting objects in a danger zone involves: calculating the actual distance between the vehicle and each object detected by the radar, the actual distance corresponding to the length of an arc between two points; determining a danger zone as a function of lines of the main traffic lane and a width of the main traffic line; and checking, for each object detected by the radar, whether its coordinates are inside the predetermined danger zone.
