A gesture detection system suitable to operate an automated vehicle includes a gesture-detection-device, a pedestrian-detection-device, and a controller. The gesture-detection-device is used to detect a gesture made by an occupant of a host-vehicle. The pedestrian-detection-device is used to detect a pedestrian proximate to the host-vehicle. The controller is in communication with the gesture-detection-device and the pedestrian-detection-device. The controller is configured to control movement of the host-vehicle along a travel-path of the host-vehicle. The controller waits to move the host-vehicle until after the pedestrian crosses the travel-path when the occupant gestures to the pedestrian to proceed across the travel-path.
