  "textContent": "A method of automated vehicle braking control includes detecting a first object threat in a reverse travel path of a vehicle, monitoring a distance of the vehicle from the first object threat with respect to a time to collision threshold, and in response to a determination that the vehicle is crossing the time to collision threshold, initiating a first rear virtual bumper event by automatically applying brakes of the vehicle. The method includes storing a location of the first object threat, defining a boundary region surrounding the location of the first object threat, detecting a second object threat in the reverse travel path, comparing a location of the second object threat with the boundary region, and inhibiting automatic application of the brakes in response to a determination that the location of the second object threat is within the boundary region, to avoid a second rear virtual bumper event.",
