Techniques for enabling a vehicle to navigate around a blocking object, such as double-parked vehicle (“DPV”), are discussed herein. In some examples, a vehicle may receive sensor data representative of an environment. The vehicle may analyze such sensor data to determine that a DPV is located proximate the vehicle. When determining whether to follow the trajectory, the vehicle may determine one or more cost values corresponding to the trajectory. Further, the vehicle may receive weighted heatmap(s) that cover the region proximate the DPV. The vehicle may modify some or all cost values of the trajectory based on the weighted values of the heatmap(s). In some examples, the vehicle may follow the trajectory based at least in part on the cost values.
