Abstract:
A processor-implemented method, system, and/or computer program product control a driving mode of a self-driving vehicle (SDV). One or more processors detect that an SDV is being operated in manual mode by a human driver. The processor(s) determine that the human driver is unqualified to operate the SDV in manual mode, and then transfer control of the SDV to an SDV on-board computer in order to place the SDV in autonomous mode.
