To automatically follow a host vehicle to a destination location, a client device in a vehicle identifies a host vehicle to follow to a destination location, transmits a communication signal to the identified host vehicle, and receives a response signal from the identified host vehicle. The client device determines a position of the host vehicle relative to the vehicle based on a round trip time of the communication signal and the response signal, and adjusts control of the vehicle in accordance with the position of the host vehicle relative to the vehicle.
