1. A system, comprising a computer including a processor and a memory, the memory storing instructions executable by the processor to:
while operating a host vehicle in an area, identify a target vehicle in a sub-area based on detecting a visual cue from the target vehicle;
predict that a future location of the target vehicle and a path of the host vehicle will intersect;
determine a stop position of the host vehicle based on the future location of the target vehicle;
update the path of the host vehicle to include a width of the path that satisfies a minimum width threshold, wherein the width of the path is determined by summing a first lateral distance from the host vehicle to an object and a second lateral distance from the host vehicle to the target vehicle; and
then, operate the host vehicle to the stop position or along the updated path.
