Abstract
In one embodiment, a process is performed during controlling Autonomous Driving Vehicle (ADV). A confidence level associated with a sensed obstacle is determined. If the confidence level is below a confidence threshold, and a distance between the ADV and a potential point of contact with the sensed obstacle is below a distance threshold, then performance of a driving decision is delayed. Otherwise, the driving decision is performed to reduce risk of contact with the sensed obstacle.
