<p> This thesis studies critical zones of automated vehicles. The goal is for the automated vehicle to complete a car-following or lane change maneuver without collision. For instance, the automated vehicle should be able to indicate its interest in changing lanes and plan how the maneuver will occur by using model predictive control theory, in addition to the autonomous vehicle toolbox in Matlab. A test bench (that includes a scenario creator, motion logic and planner, sensors, and radars) is created and used to calculate the parameters of a critical zone. After a trajectory has been planned, the automated vehicle then attempts the car following or lane change while constantly ensuring its safety to continue on this path. If at any point, the lead vehicle brakes or a trailing vehicle accelerates, the automated vehicle makes the decision to either brake, accelerate, or abandon the lane change. </p>
