    Abstract: A computer that includes a processor and a memory, the memory including instructions executable by the processor to, upon initiating a lane change maneuver from a first lane to a second lane by a first vehicle including a first predicted trajectory, determine a second predicted trajectory for a second vehicle in a third lane based on one or more side-looking sensors. Based on determining that a distance between the first predicted trajectory and the second predicted trajectory is greater than a threshold, the first vehicle can be actuated to perform the lane change maneuver.
