TRANSITIONING FROM AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE CONTROL TO OPERATOR VEHICLE CONTROL

A method for transitioning vehicle control includes obtaining a one or more operator vehicle control inputs, analyzing the one or more operator vehicle control inputs to determine operator compliance with one or more autonomous vehicle control inputs that are actively controlling motion of a vehicle, and based on the analysis of the one or more operator vehicle control inputs, allowing an operator to assume manual control of the vehicle when the operator vehicle control inputs match the one or more autonomous vehicle control inputs to within a threshold value.
