A method and corresponding apparatus involve monitoring, by a first motor vehicle, a position of a second motor vehicle in an adjacent lane and performing an automated safety routine. The safety routine includes determining, based on sensor data, whether the vehicles are maintaining a same speed and determining whether the first motor vehicle can switch to the adjacent lane without colliding with the second motor vehicle. If the vehicles are maintaining the same speed and the first motor vehicle cannot switch to the adjacent lane, a longitudinal offset is set based on the sensor data and established by automatically decreasing the speed of the first motor vehicle. The speed of the first motor vehicle is automatically adjusted to maintain at least the longitudinal offset until the first motor vehicle can switch to the adjacent lane without colliding with the second motor vehicle.
