Abstract

Systems and methods to provide location specific assistance are presented. A condition at a geographic location may be identified that is sensed in an environment of a vehicle and that a first autonomous vehicle control system is unable to, without location specific assistance, perceive, interpret and/or react to if navigating an area. A course at the geographic location that was previously determined by a second autonomous vehicle control system and/or followed by a person-driven vehicle when the condition was present at the geographic location may be found. The vehicle may be caused to follow the course previously determined by a second autonomous vehicle control system and/or followed by the person-driven vehicle.
