This disclosure is directed to techniques for collaborative driving during flagger interactions. For instance, a vehicle navigating along a path may detect a flagger using sensor data. Based on detecting the flagger, the vehicle may stop at a location that is at least a threshold distance from the flagger and also send the sensor data to one or more computing devices associated with a teleoperator. The vehicle may then receive a guidance from the one or more computing devices, where the guidance is to proceed past the location. In some examples, the vehicle receives the guidance when the teleoperator activates and holds an input device. Based on receiving the guidance, the vehicle may begin to navigate passed the location and by the flagger. In some examples, the vehicle continues to navigate as long as the teleoperator activates the input device.
