Vehicular driving assist system with student driver mode
A vehicular control system includes a sensor disposed at a vehicle and sensing exterior and at least forward of the vehicle. The vehicular control system is operable in a student driver mode. The vehicular control system, responsive to processing the sensor data, determines when the vehicle is undertaking a parking maneuver. The vehicular control system, responsive to determining that the vehicle is undertaking a parking maneuver and when the vehicular control system is operating in the student driver mode, determines when an acceleration of the vehicle is unintentional. The vehicular control system, responsive to determining that the acceleration of the vehicle is unintentional, limits acceleration of the vehicle.
