One or more dynamic leading objects can be detected in an external environment of a vehicle. The dynamic leading object(s) can be tracked by acquiring position data of the dynamic leading object(s) over time. When it is determined whether a current position of the ego vehicle is at substantially the same longitudinal position as one of the dynamic leading objects at a prior time based on the acquired position data of the dynamic leading object, a lateral offset between the current position of the ego vehicle and the previous position of the dynamic leading object can be determined. The lateral offset can be used to identify a current travel lane of the ego vehicle, determine lane crossings, and/or determine travel lane probability distributions.
