Abstract:
A system according to the present disclosure includes a lane boundary module, a vehicle trajectory module, an intersection location module, a lane departure module, and a driver warning module. The lane boundary module is configured to determine a boundary of a lane within which a vehicle is travelling. The vehicle trajectory module is configured to predict a trajectory of the vehicle. The intersection location module is configured to determine M locations of M intersections between the vehicle trajectory and the lane boundary at M times, where M is an integer greater than one. The lane departure module is configured to identify a potential lane departure based on the M locations. The driver warning module is configured to activate a driver warning device to warn a driver when the potential lane departure is identified.
