A vehicle includes at least one of a camera and a proximity sensor for detecting an obstacle in a vehicle path. A screen is projected on a windshield of the vehicle. A driver inattention determination unit determines a driver attentiveness. A danger level determination unit determines a danger level on a danger scale according to one or more of the driver attentiveness, a driving condition, a driving hazard, and the presence of the obstacle. A driver alert unit reduces a size of the screen on the windshield proportional to the danger level.
