Abstract
Vehicle systems and methods for autonomously controlling a vehicle to create a reaction by one or more surrounding vehicles, where the reaction is used to build one or more vehicle profiles are disclosed. In one embodiment, a vehicle includes an object detection system configured to output an object signal in response to detecting one or more vehicles operating in an environment surrounding the vehicle, an autonomous control system configured to autonomously control one or more vehicle systems of the vehicle, one or more processors, and one or more non-transitory memory modules communicatively coupled to the processors and storing machine-readable instructions that, when executed, cause the one or more processors to perform at least determining the vehicle is operating in an autonomous driving mode, and in response to determining the vehicle is operating in the autonomous driving mode, determine a presence of the one or more vehicles.
