A vehicle environment detection system in an ego vehicle, including a sensor arrangement and a main control unit is arranged to detect and track at least one oncoming vehicle, and to determine whether the ego vehicle has entered a curve. The main control unit is arranged to determine a common curve with a radius, along which common curve the ego vehicle is assumed to travel, determine a measured oncome direction of the oncoming vehicle on the common curve, corresponding to an oncome angle, determine a difference angle between the measured oncome direction and an oncome direction corresponding to if the oncoming vehicle would be moving along the common curve, compare the difference angle with a threshold angle, and to determine that the oncoming vehicle is crossing if the difference angle exceeds the threshold angle.
