It starts by knowing its position (Not GPS weapon. Could be value = zero, zero & zero), and of course it knows where it needs to go.
It knows its velocity, in say North, East & Down movements, therefore can calculate where is was, then where its been, and can use that to know where it needs to go...

Parked cars were always more of an issue as they never seemed to appear on my mental map to enable me to re-establish Track!
Developed a special "search and re-acquire track" mode for such difficult cases!
