Abstract

Aspects of the disclosure relate to conducting pullover maneuvers for autonomous vehicles. For instance, a pullover location may be identified. A pullover start location may be determined for the pullover location. A first distance for the vehicle to come to a complete stop within a pullover deceleration limit may be determined based on a current speed of the vehicle. A second distance between a current location of the vehicle and the pullover start location may be determined. The first distance may be compared to the second distance to assess feasibility of the pullover location. The vehicle may be controlled in order to conduct a pullover maneuver in an autonomous driving mode.
