Techniques and methods for determining a distance between a point within an environment and a reference line are discussed herein. For instance, a vehicle may be navigating. While navigating, the vehicle may receive a reference line that represents a road segment and determine various regions relative to the reference line. Additionally, the vehicle may generate sensor data representing the environment and identify an object using the sensor data. The vehicle may then determine that a location of the object corresponds to a region from the regions. Based on the region, the vehicle may determine a rule for identifying the distance between the vehicle and the reference line. The vehicle may then determine the distance using the rule, the location of the object, and the reference line. Additionally, the vehicle may determine an action for the vehicle to perform that is based on the distance.
