An object-detection system suitable for use on an autonomous vehicle includes a camera, a radar-sensor, and a controller. The camera detects a travel-lane of a roadway traveled by a host-vehicle. The radar-sensor detects targets in a field-of-view of the radar-sensor. The field-of-view includes the roadway, wherein the roadway defines a boundary of the roadway detected by the radar-sensor. The controller is in communication with the camera and the radar-sensor. The controller determines that a collection of targets is a stationary-object that defines a line. The controller classifies the stationary-object as an overpass when the line extends beyond the boundary of the roadway. The controller classifies the stationary-object as an impediment when the line overlays a portion of the travel-lane traveled by the host-vehicle and does not extend beyond the boundary of the roadway.
