METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR AVOIDING COLLISION BASED ON OCCUPANT POSITION

A method of avoiding a collision based on an occupant position includes determining the occupant position based on occupant detection information, determining a collision range with an other vehicle based on occupant position information, controlling a collision avoidance sensitivity increment based on a rear-end collision range with the other vehicle, and activating a collision avoidance operation to avoid a collision with the other vehicle based on the collision avoidance sensitivity increment.
