Abstract

In an approach to mirage detection by autonomous vehicles, one or more computer processors monitor road conditions of a road on which an autonomous vehicle is traveling. One or more computer processors detect a visual indication of a water accumulation on the road. One or more computer processors determine whether one or more other vehicles are detected on the road ahead of the autonomous vehicle. Responsive to determining the one or more other vehicles are detected, one or more computer processors request information associated with road conditions of the road ahead of the autonomous vehicle from the one or more other vehicles. Based on a response to the request from the one or more other vehicles, one or more computer processors determine the one or more other vehicles did not detect the water accumulation. One or more computer processors determine the visual indication of the water accumulation is a mirage.
