Aspects of the present invention relate to a control system for a host vehicle, vehicle comprising the control system and a method for estimating a lateral position of a host vehicle. The host vehicle comprises a first sensor arrangement disposed at a first orientation relative to the host vehicle and at least one additional sensor arrangement, each additional sensor arrangement being disposed at an orientation relative to the host vehicle that is different to the first orientation. First sensor information is received from the first sensor arrangement and additional sensor information is received from each additional sensor arrangement. A lateral position of the vehicle relative to a roadway is determined using the additional sensor information if all or part of the first sensor information is interrupted and an output is provided in dependence on the determined lateral position.
