Abstract
A computer method suitable for use with a vehicle. The method comprises the steps of using a Global Positioning System (GPS) as a first order mechanism for guiding the vehicle pursuant to a current destination and in accordance with a statically determined vehicle trajectory; monitoring real time dynamic factors relating to the current vehicle trajectory; creating a branching condition for determining if the GPS first order mechanism must be modified responsive to the real time dynamic factors; and activating an instantaneous vehicle replacement trajectory depending on the branching condition such that the replacement trajectory accommodates the effects of the real time dynamic factors by providing a second order GPS mechanism.
