Abstract (EN): — The problem of design of safe control laws for intelligent cruise control applications is addressed and a solution is proposed. The design problem is formulated as a zero-sum differential game where the objective of the leading vehicle is to provoke a collision and the objective of the following vehicle is to prevent a collision from happening regardless of the motion of the leader. A control strategy is safe if it can guarantee that no collision will occur between vehicles. The approach can be applied to Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Cooperative ACC system
