Abstract
System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to resolving a standoff by a vehicle. In one embodiment, a method includes generating a happens-before relationship that explains events between the vehicle and other vehicles before the standoff. The standoff may be a dispute for a right of way between the vehicle and the other vehicles. The method also includes identifying the standoff using a causality relationship analysis according to the happens-before relationship. The method also includes generating a mitigation plan for the standoff that forms standoff solutions in association with the standoff being similar to a prior standoff. The method also includes resolving the standoff by causing vehicle maneuvers associated with the vehicle according to the standoff solutions.
