Abstract
A time to lane crossing that is a measure of a time for a vehicle to cross from a lane to another lane, is determined. A lane negotiation characteristic that is a measure of a mean vehicle offset front the lane, is determined. A first mechanism is actuated in a wearable device when the time to lane crossing is below a first threshold and the lane negotiation characteristic exceeds a second threshold. A second mechanism is actuated in the vehicle when a lane negotiation controller detects an imminent lane departure.
