We disclose adaptive active safety systems which utilize a sensing system to detect road conditions and actuate an active safety routine based thereon. One disclosed method includes transmitting, with a multispectral LIDAR system on a vehicle, a multispectral light beam directed at an anticipated region of travel of the vehicle within a road, and analyzing a response, of a photodetector, to a return of the multispectral light beam. The method also includes determining, based on the analyzing of the response, a hazardous surface condition in the anticipated region of travel of the vehicle, and actuating, based on the determination of the hazardous surface condition, an active safety routine. The method can be executed by an ADAS in which the determinations of the hazardous surface conditions on the road in the anticipated region of travel are executed in real time to thereby produce a road aware ADAS.
