1. A method of providing an alert to an occupant within a vehicle to inform the occupant of threat vehicles when the vehicle is located at an intersection, comprising:
detecting, with a system controller in communication with at least one of a plurality of onboard sensors, wireless communication with other vehicles and wireless communication with infrastructure systems, at least one approaching vehicle that is moving toward the intersection;
calculating, with the system controller, a distance from the intersection, speed and trajectory of the at least one approaching vehicle;
determining, with the system controller, if the at least one approaching vehicle poses a threat and if the at least one approaching vehicle poses a threat, classifying the at least one approaching vehicle as a threat vehicle;
determining, with the system controller, a warning message and augmentation graphics to be provided;
determining, with the system controller, if the warning message and the augmentation graphics will fit within a field of view (FOV) of an augmented reality head up display system (AR-HUD);
projecting the warning message and the augmentation graphics onto an inner surface of a windshield of the vehicle by at least one of:
projecting the warning message and augmentation graphics onto the inner surface of the windshield with the AR-HUD system when the warning message and the augmentation graphics fit within the FOV of the AR-HUD system;
changing a color of route guidance graphics currently being displayed by the AR-HUD; and
projecting the warning message and augmentation graphics onto the inner surface of the windshield with a full windshield display system when the warning message and the augmentation graphics do not fit within the FOV of the AR-HUD system.
