A collision alert system and method for a micro-mobility vehicle includes a proximity sensor, a speed sensor, an alert device, and a controller having a bypass mode and an alert mode. The controller compares a speed of the micro-mobility vehicle to a predetermined speed threshold, enters a bypass mode when the speed of the micro-mobility vehicle is less than the predetermined speed threshold, and enters a warning mode when the speed of the micro-mobility vehicle is greater than the predetermined speed threshold. The controller does not activate the warning device in the bypass mode, calculates an estimated time prior to a potential collision with the object in the warning mode, compares the estimated time to a predetermined time threshold, and generates a collision warning by activating the warning device in response to the estimated time prior to the collision being less than the predetermined time threshold. 本发明涉及用于微移动性车辆的碰撞警报系统和方法，包括接近传感器、速度传感器、警告装置、以及具有旁路模式和警告模式的控制器。控制器将微移动性车辆的速度与预定速度阈值进行比较，当微移动性车辆的速度小于预定
