Navigation of impaired vehicle
A system includes a computer programmed to receive first data from a first source that is a vehicle. The first data identifies a fault of the vehicle. The computer is programmed to receive second data from a second source outside the vehicle describing an area around the vehicle. The computer is programmed to determine, based on the first and second data, a navigational plan. The computer is programmed to transmit an instruction to the vehicle to actuate the vehicle according to the navigational plan.
1. A system, comprising:
a computer in a vehicle, the computer programmed to transmit first data identifying a fault of the vehicle in response to a determination that the vehicle cannot operate in a normal mode; and
a server computer remote from any vehicle and programmed to:
receive the first data from the computer in the vehicle;
receive second data from a source outside the vehicle describing an area around the vehicle;
determine an area traversable by the vehicle in the normal mode, the area traversable by the vehicle in the normal mode including a lane and a permitted direction of travel of the lane;
determine, based on the first data and the second data, a navigational plan including a route outside the area traversable by the vehicle in the normal mode, the route including traveling in the lane other than in the permitted direction of travel; and
transmit an instruction to the vehicle to actuate the vehicle according to the navigational plan.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the second data includes a vehicle location.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the instruction to the vehicle includes an instruction to actuate one or more of a propulsion system, a brake system, and a steering system.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first data includes a location of the vehicle.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the second data includes data describing navigation of at least one other vehicle.
6. The system of claim 1 , the computer in the vehicle further programmed to actuate a brake system of the vehicle to bring the vehicle to a stop upon at least one of a detection of an object in a path of the vehicle and a detection of an impact to the vehicle, and to determine that the vehicle cannot operate in the normal mode in response to the stop.
7. The system of claim 6 , the computer in the vehicle further programmed to identify a location of the vehicle after bringing the vehicle to the stop, and to transmit the first data in response to a determination that the location is not an authorized stop location.
8. The system of claim 1 , the computer in the vehicle programmed to transmit the first data in response to identifying the fault as preventing the vehicle from operating in the normal mode.
9. A system, comprising:
a computer in a vehicle, the computer programmed to transmit first data identifying a fault of the vehicle in response to a determination that the vehicle cannot operate in a normal mode; and
a server computer remote from any vehicle and programmed to:
receive the first data from the vehicle;
receive second data from a user device that is one of a smartphone or a tablet computer outside the vehicle, the second data describing an area around the vehicle;
determine, based on the first data and the second data, a navigational plan; and
transmit an instruction to the vehicle to actuate the vehicle according to the navigational plan.
10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the server computer is programmed to determine the navigational plan by identifying an area that has a nullified collision risk.
