Systems and method are provided for controlling a vehicle. In one embodiment, a method includes: receiving a first surface value associated with a first road surface area in an upcoming environment of the vehicle; receiving a second surface value associated with a second road surface area in the upcoming environment of the vehicle; determining a change in surface value based on the first surface value and the second surface value; and in response to the change in surface value being greater than a threshold, adapting at least one of vehicle collision warning messages, vehicle braking control, vehicle steering control, and path planning based on the second surface value.
