1. A method comprising:

  • collecting, by a processor, information identifying one or more conditions associated with a vehicle, wherein the information includes first data associated with the vehicle, second data associated with a driver of the vehicle, and third data associated with an environment associated with the vehicle;

    determining, by the processor and based on the collected information, a likelihood of a collision involving the vehicle, wherein determining the likelihood of the collision includes;

    identifying one or more events associated with other collisions or near-collisions,identifying a plurality of conditions associated with the one or more events,generating, based on the identified conditions, a binary classification tree (BCT) including nodes associated with the identified conditions and decisions associated with each of the nodes, anddetermining the likelihood of the collision based on a conclusion that is reached using the BCT;

    determining, by the processor and based on the collected information, a likelihood of avoiding the collision;

    determining, by the processor and based on the collected information, a risk associated with the collision;

    selecting, by the processor, an action to perform based on at least one of the likelihood of the collision, the likelihood of avoiding the collision, and the risk associated with the collision; and

    causing, by the processor, the action to be performed.
