1. An automated driving system for a host vehicle, the system comprising:
an interface to obtain sensing data of an environment in a vicinity of the host vehicle, the sensing data captured from at least one sensor device of the host vehicle; and
at least one processing device configured to:
determine a planned navigational action for accomplishing a navigational goal of the host vehicle;
identify, from the sensing data, a target vehicle in the environment of the host vehicle;
predict a distance between the host vehicle and the target vehicle that would result if the planned navigational action was taken;
identify a defined braking capability of the host vehicle, a defined acceleration capability of the host vehicle, and a longitudinal speed of the host vehicle;
determine a host vehicle braking distance based on the defined braking capability of the host vehicle, the defined acceleration capability of the host vehicle, and the longitudinal speed of the host vehicle;
determine a target vehicle braking distance, based on a longitudinal speed of the target vehicle and a defined braking capability of the target vehicle; and
cause the host vehicle to implement the planned navigational action when the predicted distance of the planned navigational action is greater than a calculated safe longitudinal distance, the safe longitudinal distance being calculated based on the determined host vehicle braking distance and the determined target vehicle braking distance.
