A lane change control arrangement, vehicle, and method are described. The lane change control arrangement is arranged to adjust a host vehicle velocity in accordance with a first velocity profile to expand a detectable zone to cover a previously undetectable zone of a second road lane, detect whether a vehicle is present in the previously undetectable zone, determine that a lane change is possible, or determine that a lane change is unsuitable using the second road lane and issue a control signal to the vehicle drive arrangement to adjust the host vehicle velocity until a safety distance is established between the host vehicle and the detected vehicle, and issue a control signal to the vehicle drive arrangement to perform the lane change.
