Abstract

The disclosure relates to technology for determining vehicle environment interaction metrics and/or passenger behavioral metrics for autonomous vehicles in a driving environment. A group of one or more autonomous vehicles independently determine a VEI score for a target vehicle within a predefined vicinity of the group of one or more vehicles. A target vehicle may determine a VPB score based on passengers within the target vehicle. VEI scores and/or VPB scores determined for a target vehicle may be used by the target vehicle to reinforce and/or correct driving actions of the target vehicle.
