Various types of vehicle navigation may facilitate a driver of a vehicle, including lane suggestions (e.g., a message indicating that the current route of the vehicle involves an exit from the rightmost lane of a causeway). A device may be configured to formulate lane change suggestions by detecting a current lane of the driver; comparing the travel conditions of the current lane with the travel conditions of other lanes of the causeway; and presenting a lane change suggestion of another lane presenting advantageous travel conditions as compared with the current lane. The inclusion of the current lane in the selection and formulation of lane change suggestions may improve the relevance of the suggestions (e.g., presenting lane change suggestions only if the travel condition of another lane is advantageous over the current lane, and presenting lane change suggestions relative to the current lane, e.g., “move two lanes to the left”).
