Disclosed is an arrangement and a method for mitigating a forward collision between a host vehicle, having sensors for monitoring a road ahead and wheel brakes, and an oncoming vehicle. The sensors are utilized to estimate parameters of an oncoming vehicle. The estimated parameters are utilized to predict a future path of the oncoming vehicle, and host vehicle parameters are utilized to predict a future path of the host vehicle. The predicted future paths are assessed to determine if a forward collision is likely unavoidable assuming full freedom for performing avoidance maneuvers for both vehicles. The wheel brakes are controlled to reduce a relative longitudinal velocity between the vehicles at a predicted collision instant if determined that a forward collision is likely unavoidable at a determined relative longitudinal velocity above a first threshold.
