REFERENCE TRAJECTORY VALIDATING AND COLLISION CHECKING MANAGEMENT

Techniques for determining that a reference trajectory is free of intersections or potential collisions with objects are discussed herein. Trajectories being generated by a primary computing device of a vehicle can be utilized to select or determine a reference trajectory to be followed by the vehicle. A secondary computing device of the vehicle can identify a current offset from the reference trajectory and utilize the offset with a kinematics model to determine a trajectory that is predicted for the vehicle to drive to return to the reference trajectory. Validation of the reference trajectory may be based on predicted collision data determined using the tracker trajectory. The predicted collision data can be utilized to control the vehicle to follow the reference trajectory or a stop trajectory.
