A vehicular automatic braking system includes a forward-viewing camera, a rearward-viewing camera and a radar sensor disposed at an equipped vehicle. When the equipped vehicle is travelling in a traffic lane of a road and a leading vehicle is present forwardly of the equipped vehicle and travelling in the same traffic lane, braking of the equipped vehicle is automatically controllable to mitigate collision by the equipped vehicle with the leading vehicle. Responsive to determination by the vehicular automatic braking system that a following vehicle is following the equipped vehicle and when the determined following vehicle is within a threshold distance from the equipped vehicle and is approaching the equipped vehicle above a threshold rate of approach, automatic braking of the equipped vehicle to mitigate collision by the equipped vehicle with the leading vehicle is adjusted to mitigate collision at the rear of the equipped vehicle by the determined following vehicle.
