A method of operating a vehicle includes driving the vehicle in a direction of travel along a route. An object detection system of the vehicle senses an object disposed on the route and in the direction of travel of the vehicle. When the vehicle is within a pre-defined distance or travel time of the object, a warning system of the vehicle is automatically engaged by the object detection system to alert the object to the presence of the vehicle as the vehicle approaches the object.
