  "textContent": "An autonomous vehicle is provided. The autonomous vehicle comprises sensor(s) configured to detect data relating to an environment surrounding the autonomous vehicle and object(s) included within the environment. The autonomous vehicle also includes an autonomy computing system(s) in communication with the sensor(s). The autonomy computing system(s) include a processor(s) in communication with a memory device(s), and the processor(s) is programmed to calculate a drivable space consumption (DSC) ratio for the autonomous vehicle traveling within the environment based on an anticipated spatial occupancy for the autonomous vehicle within the environment and a drivable space within the environment. The processor(s) is also programmed to determine a risk level for the autonomous vehicle based on the determined DSC ratio, and adjust driving characteristics for the autonomous vehicle traveling in the environment in response to the determined risk level for the autonomous vehicle including a high-risk driving condition.",
