Abstract

Anomalous events in a driving environment can be detected and/or validated by leveraging inherent human behavior. A notification of the anomalous event can be received from an initial connected entity in the driving environment. In response, an inquiry can be sent to connected entities spatiotemporally related to the initial connected entity as to whether any person associated with the connected entities is exhibiting an inherent human behavior. When a threshold level of responses to the inquiry are received from the connected entities indicating that an inherent human behavior has been detected, the one or more connected entities can be caused to upload driving scene data for at least a time when the inherent human behavior by the occupant of the connected vehicle was detected.
