Abstract
A control method is provided for controlling a lateral position of a motor vehicle. The control method includes calculating a sighting distance of a detector means embedded in the vehicle, calculating a first component of a steering angle setpoint of a steered wheels of the vehicle, and calculating a second component of the steering angle setpoint. The first component is an open loop component of a control system, while the second component is a closed loop component of the control system. The first component is weighted by a gain that is a decreasing function of the sighting distance.
