Abstract
An autonomous vehicle including a communication system in communication with a computing system. The computing system runs computer-executable instructions that may examine a profile of a passenger. The computer-executable instructions may include detecting a safe opportunity for the passenger to exit the autonomous vehicle. In response to detecting the safe opportunity, and if the profile of the passenger requests so, the autonomous vehicle may cause a speaker on the autonomous vehicle to audibly notify and guide the passenger to exit the autonomous vehicle safely during the safe opportunity.
