Abstract
A method for controlling an autonomous vehicle includes navigating the autonomous vehicle based on a set of rules. The method also includes identifying an abnormality in a current driving situation. The method further includes prompting a passenger of the autonomous vehicle to interact with a driver of a first vehicle in response to identifying the abnormality. The method still further includes controlling the autonomous vehicle to violate one or more rules of the set of rules in response to an indication of a successful interaction with the driver.
