1. A vehicular control system, the vehicular control system comprising:
a sensor disposed at a vehicle equipped with the vehicular control system and sensing at least forward of the vehicle, the sensor capturing sensor data;
an electronic control unit (ECU) comprising electronic circuitry and associated software;
wherein the electronic circuitry of the ECU comprises a processor for processing sensor data captured by the sensor;
wherein the vehicular control system is operable in a student driver mode;
wherein the vehicular control system, via processing of sensor data captured by the sensor, determines when the vehicle is undertaking a parking maneuver;
wherein the vehicular control system, responsive to determining that the vehicle is undertaking the parking maneuver and when the vehicular control system is operating in the student driver mode, determines that an acceleration of the vehicle is unintentional; and
wherein the vehicular control system, responsive to determining that the acceleration of the vehicle is unintentional, limits acceleration of the vehicle.
