A driving assist system for a vehicle includes a plurality of sensors having respective fields of sensing exterior of the vehicle. A control includes a data processor that processes data captured by the sensors. The control, via processing of captured data, determines a path of travel for the vehicle. The control, via processing of captured data, determines presence of a pedestrian at or near or approaching the determined path of travel for the vehicle. A projection device is disposed at the vehicle and is operable to project light exterior of the vehicle. The projection device (i) projects light onto the ground that is indicative of the determined path of travel of the vehicle for viewing by the determined pedestrian and/or (ii) projects an alert icon onto the ground to alert the determined pedestrian that the determined pedestrian is at or near or approaching the determined path of travel of the vehicle.
