A host vehicle that includes an autonomous control system that is capable of executing an automatic lane change (ALC) maneuver is described. The ALC maneuver may be executed when the host vehicle is seeking to merge into a lane of travel. This includes operating under conditions that include moderate to heavy levels of traffic. The host vehicle is capable of soliciting a desired gap in a target lane by using a lane centering offset maneuver to influence and observe proximal vehicles operating in the target lane before executing the ALC maneuver.
