Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for open vehicle doors prediction using a neural network model. One of the methods includes: obtaining sensor data (i) that includes a portion of a point cloud generated by a laser sensor of an autonomous vehicle and (ii) that characterizes a vehicle that is in a vicinity of the autonomous vehicle in an environment; and processing the sensor data using an open door prediction neural network to generate an open door prediction that predicts a likelihood score that the vehicle has an open door.
