Abstract
A vehicle and an adaptive cruise control system, ACC, is provided. The ACC system includes a control unit configured to control a steering angle of said vehicle in relation to detected road lanes and/or road markings. The ACC system further includes a steering wheel arranged to allow the provision of manual steering input to the steering system of the vehicle and a steering angle sensor. The steering system is configured to identify a steering wheel jerk, performed as a clockwise- and counter-clockwise actuation of the steering wheel within a predetermined time range and to steer the host vehicle from a first, current, road lane to a second road lane based on the identified jerk as indicated by the steering angle sensor.
