A machine-implemented method is provided for controlling a fully automated or partially automated road vehicle so as to accurately position the vehicle within a traffic lane occupied by the vehicle. The method includes: determining locations of or distances to side boundaries or a longitudinal center of a traffic lane currently occupied by the vehicle; determining a currently requested or commanded offset from either one of the side boundaries or the longitudinal center of the traffic lane; determining if the vehicle is currently at least substantially complying with the requested or commanded offset; and if the vehicle is not currently substantially complying with the offset, adjusting a steering control of the vehicle to thereby bring the vehicle into compliance with the currently requested or commanded offset. By requesting or commanding different offsets on different days, road wear is more evenly distributed and concentrate break down due to accurate lane centering is avoided.
