This paper presents a novel application of artificial cognitive systems to traffic scene understanding and early recognition of highway maneuvers. This is achieved by use of Bayesian networks for knowledge representation, to mimic the human reasoning on situation analysis and to manage inherited uncertainties in the automotive domain, that requires efficient and effective analysis of high volume and frequency data streams. The maneuver recognition uses features, analyzing the observed vehicles behavior and available free space on the target lane.
