Abstract
A system for controlling lateral positioning in a host vehicle includes a controller having a processor and tangible, non-transitory memory. The host vehicle is located on a host lane defined by a host lane center. The controller is adapted to determine if a first and second enabling condition are met. The first enabling condition is met when the host vehicle is travelling on a non-divided road having no physical barrier separating respective traffic lanes travelling in opposing directions. The second enabling condition is met when the host lane is an inner most lane adjacent to an opposing traffic lane. When the first and second enabling conditions are both met, the controller is adapted to determine a non-divided road offset relative to the host lane center in real-time. Operation of the vehicle is controlled based in part on a magnitude, and a direction of the non-divided road offset.
