Abstract
A vehicle, a method and a vehicle brake-control-system are provided. The host vehicle comprises a steering wheel, a vehicle brake system, at least one sensor arranged to monitor a sensor monitoring area of a host vehicle surrounding and an autonomous operating arrangement which is arranged to control steering and velocity of the host vehicle in an autonomous operating mode at least partly based on information received from the at least one sensor. The vehicle brake-control-system is arranged to determine if the steering wheel is manually operated when the vehicle is operating in the autonomous driving mode, and if so control the vehicle brake system to perform braking of the host vehicle.
