This document describes techniques and systems for target of interest selection on roadway ramps. When a host vehicle transitions from a roadway to a ramp, a quantity of lanes of the ramp is determined from a map stored in a driving system of the host vehicle. If there are multiple lanes, then a standard driving scheme may be employed. This standard driving scheme may prioritize a target directly in front of the host vehicle to be a target of interest. However, if the ramp has a single lane, a first target leading the host vehicle, but not necessarily directly in front of the host vehicle is determined to be the target of interest. Driving systems, such as adaptive cruise control, may base driving decisions on the target of interest. By determining the target of interest in this manner, uncertainty due to predictions and complexity of calculations may be reduced.
