A vehicle includes a vehicle monitoring system for estimating vehicle motion states, a spatial monitoring system, an adaptive cruise control system for vehicle speed and acceleration control, a steering controller for vehicle lateral motion control, a roadway estimator, and an autonomic control system. Commanded vehicle operation is adjusted to achieve a preferred travel path based upon a predicted travel path and an estimated roadway. The preferred travel path is adapted responsive to the estimated roadway.

The method of claim 8, wherein adjusting the preferred lane change control time comprises extending the preferred lane change control time when the vehicle lateral acceleration state exceeds a threshold. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein adapting the preferred travel path is further responsive to the extended preferred lane change control time when the vehicle lateral acceleration state exceeds the threshold. 11. Method for controlling operation of a vehicle configured to execute an autonomic lane change maneuver, comprising: estimating a roadway;generating a preferred travel path, a path generation processor, in response to an operator request for a lane change maneuver and the estimated roadway;estimating a first vehicle lateral acceleration state corresponding to the preferred travel path;adapting the preferred travel path when the first vehicle lateral acceleration state exceeds a threshold;determining a second vehicle lateral acceleration state corresponding to the adapted preferred travel path; andreducing vehicle speed when the second vehicle lateral acceleration state exceeds the threshold. 12. The method of claim 11, wherein generating the preferred travel path is additionally in response to a preferred lane change control time. 13. The method of claim 12, further comprising extending the preferred lane change control time wherein adapting the preferred travel path is in response to the extended preferred lane change control time. 14. The method of claim 13, wherein determining the second vehicle lateral acceleration state is in response to the extended preferred lane change control time. 15. The method of claim 14, further comprising operating an autonomic control system to control a steering controller to execute a steering command responsive to the adapted preferred travel path. 16. The method of claim 15, wherein reducing vehicle speed when the second vehicle lateral acceleration state exceeds the threshold comprises operating the autonomic control system to reduce vehicle speed in response to the adapted preferred travel path.
