Abstract
A driver assistance system for a vehicle includes a camera disposed at a vehicle and having a field of view forward of the vehicle. A control includes an image processor that is operable to process image data captured by the camera. Responsive to processing by the image processor of image data captured by the camera, the image processor is operable to determine lane markings demarcating the lane in which the vehicle is traveling. Responsive to processing by the image processor of captured image data and responsive to at least one of (i) a map input and (ii) a location input, the control estimates a path of travel for the vehicle to maintain the vehicle in the lane in which the vehicle is traveling in situations where the lane markings demarcating the lane in which the vehicle is traveling are not readily determinable.
