MANAGING VEHICLE BEHAVIOR BASED ON PREDICTED BEHAVIOR OF OTHER VEHICLES

Various embodiments include methods and systems for managing vehicle behavior. In some embodiments, a vehicle processor of the first vehicle may receive dynamic traffic flow feature information relevant to movements of a second vehicle within a predetermined proximity to the host vehicle, determine probabilities of a plurality of potential behaviors of the second vehicle based on the received dynamic traffic flow feature information, predict a future path of the second vehicle, and use the predicted future path of the second vehicle in a vehicle control function. In some embodiments, the vehicle processor of the first vehicle may predict a behavior of a third vehicle based on received intention information about the second vehicle, and may adjust a behavior of the first vehicle based on the predicted behavior of the third vehicle.
