Abstract
A system can analyze a sensor view of a surrounding area of a self-driving vehicle (SDV). Based on analyzing the sensor view, the system can determine that a decision point along a current route of the SDV exceeds a predetermined risk threshold, and diverge the SDV from the current route based at least in part on the decision point exceeding the predetermined risk threshold.
