A method for preventing or mitigating rear-end collisions of a motor vehicle and potential multiple vehicle collisions includes locating, by a sensor system of the motor vehicle, an obstructing vehicle in the front of the motor vehicle located on a trajectory of the motor vehicle, the obstructing vehicle being characterized by a speed below a predetermined first speed threshold, equal to zero; braking the motor vehicle, by an automatic braking system of the motor vehicle, to stop at a predetermined safety distance from the obstructing vehicle; monitoring, by the sensor system, the rear of the motor vehicle for a trailing vehicle approaching the motor vehicle from behind, wherein the sensor system is configured to detect driving information of the trailing vehicle; and performing safety measures by a control system of the motor vehicle in case a rear-end collision is anticipated based on the detected driving characteristics of the trailing vehicle.
