A radar system suitable for use on a vehicle and configured to detect a false radar-track arising from a reflection of a radar return from a target includes a first sensor, a second sensor, and a controller. The first sensor outputs a first signal indicative of a first target in a first area proximate to a vehicle. The second sensor outputs a second signal indicative of a second target in a second area proximate to the vehicle and different from the first area. The controller receives the first signal and the second signal. The controller determines that the second target is a reflection of the first target when a reflection-line that bisects and extends orthogonally from a line-segment extending between the first target and the second target intersects with a reflection surface detected by the second sensor.
