The invention is a pedestrian safety method and system that compares characteristic acoustic and motion signatures to sound and motion signatures collected in real-time through a vehicle's monitoring system to detect and confirm that the vehicle itself presents a danger to pedestrians or others in proximity to the vehicle and autonomously stops the offending vehicle by quickly initiating disabling measures.
