Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a driver controlling system for a vehicle comprising a propulsive actuator unit, a propulsive sensor unit, and a control unit. The control unit prompts the propulsive actuator unit to apply a driving parameter in an automated driving mode of the vehicle. The driving parameter is based on a driving preference of a driver. The control unit further modifies the driving parameter of the automated driving mode by a defined rate of deviation for causing a reaction of the driver. The propulsive sensor unit generates driver engagement data based on the reaction of the driver to the modified driving parameter. The rate of deviation may be varied and/or the driving parameter may be incrementally modified from a prior modified driving parameter by the defined rate of deviation, in case of insufficient reaction of the user.
