A method for informing a driver of a subject vehicle that the subject vehicle and a secondary vehicle may be entering a target lane between the vehicles from opposite sides of the target lane. The method includes identifying location of the subject vehicle relative to the secondary vehicle when the subject vehicle and the secondary vehicle are on opposite sides of the target lane, and when at least one of the subject vehicle and the secondary vehicle is moving into the target lane. The method also includes alerting the driver of the subject vehicle of the secondary vehicle when the subject vehicle and the secondary vehicle are on opposite sides of the target lane, and when a gap between the subject vehicle and the secondary vehicle is decreasing. The method further includes steering the subject vehicle away from the secondary vehicle if the gap is less than a predetermined distance.
