The present invention relates to a driver assistance (DA) system and method for vehicle flank safety. This system and method also have utility in autonomous driving (AD) applications. The system and method optionally pair one or more cameras with one or more proximity sensors to provide free space awareness and contact avoidance related to the flank of a vehicle, providing a virtual distance grid overlay on one or more camera views available to an operator, predefined safety boundary intrusion detection under low-speed maneuvering conditions, door-open obstruction and danger detection, and a flank illumination system.
