ROUTE DETERMINATION FOR SWITCHING BETWEEN AUTONOMOUS AND MANUAL DRIVING MODES

A method includes: determining, by a computer device, conditions along a predefined driving route of a vehicle; determining, by the computer device and based on the conditions, risk factors of segments of the driving route; determining, by the computer device, an optimal one of the segments for switching the vehicle from autonomous driving mode to manual driving mode; and outputting, by the computer device, data defining the determined optimal one of the segments.
