Abstract
Described herein are technologies relating to controlling an autonomous vehicle based upon a computed lane boundary. The computed lane boundary defines a travel path for the autonomous vehicle when the autonomous vehicle turns across a lane of traffic at an intersection of two or more roadways. The autonomous vehicle navigates turn based upon the computed lane boundary, which allows the autonomous vehicle to enter the intersection without crossing into a lane of oncoming traffic.
