Abstract
A method of planning a lane change maneuver from one lane to an outer lane to prepare for an approaching exit from a multi-laned section of road for an automated vehicle is provided. The vehicle is or can be coupled to a central computer for data exchange. Traffic data representing a local traffic volume on the multi-laned section of road is received by the central computer. Lane change data about planned and successfully carried out automated lane change maneuvers is received from other automated vehicles of a vehicle fleet by the central computer. A probability of the vehicle being able to carry out an automated lane change maneuver at a particular position given a current traffic volume is determined by the central computer using received traffic data and received lane change data.
