A SYSTEM AND A METHOD FOR VEHICLE LENGTH DETERMINATION

A vehicle length determination system (1) of a vehicle (VEH) configured to determine a length (L) of another vehicle (VEH') in the vehicle's vicinity, said vehicle length determination system (1) comprising a detection unit (2) adapted to detect a first distance (d1) between the vehicle (VEH) and a front or rear side of the other vehicle (VEH'), and adapted to detect a second distance (d2) between the vehicle (VEH) and a vehicle component mounted to a chassis of the other vehicle (VEH'), and a control unit (3) adapted to calculate the length (L) of the other vehicle (VEH') depending on the determined first and second distance (d1, d2).
