System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to dynamically determining an appropriate responsive action for a moving vehicle in accordance with local traffic regulations. In one embodiment, the disclosed system identifies a stationary vehicle in an environment of the subject vehicle based at least in part on information from a plurality of sensors disposed on the subject vehicle and classifies a type of the stationary vehicle as valid or abandoned based at least in part on the information from the plurality of sensors. A classification of valid indicates that a traffic regulation requires the subject vehicle to undertake a responsive action toward the stationary vehicle. The disclosed system obtains a local traffic regulation based on a location of the subject vehicle and modifies a trajectory of the subject vehicle based on the local traffic regulation when the type of the stationary vehicle is determined to be valid.

Systems and methods for addressing a moving vehicle response to a stationary vehicle

System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to providing auto-parking for a vehicle according to the presence of a passenger. In one embodiment, a method includes, in response to receiving a request for the vehicle to auto-park and to determining the passenger is present within the vehicle, analyzing sensor data about the passenger to generate passenger characteristics that indicate at least an age group for the passenger. The method includes determining whether the age group for the passenger satisfies an auto-park threshold that is based, at least in part, on regulations of a locality in which the vehicle is presently located. The method includes selectively executing auto-parking of the vehicle according to whether the age group of the passenger satisfies the auto-park threshold.
