A computer-implemented method for controlling a vehicle system of a host vehicle merging with one or more remote vehicles, including receiving speed data transmitted from the one or more remote vehicles via a vehicular communication network and receiving position data of the one or more remote vehicles from the sensor system of the host vehicle that monitors an area around the host vehicle. Upon determining the one or more remote vehicles are in the area around the host vehicle based on the position data, determining a safe distance for merging into the lane based on a relative position of the host vehicle to the one or more remote vehicles. Further, controlling the vehicle system of the host vehicle according to an actual distance between the host vehicle and the one or more remote vehicles and the safe distance.
