Abstract
A roadmanship system comprises a computational device and a vehicle comprising a plurality of sensors and a vehicle control system in communication with the computational device and the plurality of sensors. The computational device can be configured to: (i) receive driving data from a group of vehicles; (ii) calculate a regression curve based on the driving data; (iii) calculate a threshold value of an engineering parameter based on the regression curve and a predetermined roadmanship level; and (iv) output the threshold value to the vehicle control system. The vehicle control system can be configured to: (a) receive the threshold value from the computational device; (b) receive operational information associated with at least one of the vehicle and a driving environment surrounding the vehicle from the plurality of sensors; and (c) cause the vehicle to perform a vehicle maneuver based on the threshold value and the operational information.
