Abstract

A method for controlling a manual driving mode includes manual mode detecting step detecting whether a vehicle switched from autonomous to manual mode; first step controlling angle of tire and steering angle of a steering wheel using travel route information when switching to manual mode is detected; delay time determination step determining a delay time of change of the angle of the tire with change of the steering angle of the steering wheel by the change in the angle of the tire with the change in the steering angle of the steering wheel for predetermined time; delay time comparison step comparing the determined delay time with predetermined time period; second step controlling only the steering angle of the steering wheel using travel route information when delay time is within the predetermined time period; and third step controlling angle of the tire by steering angle of the steering wheel.
