Abstract
Disclosed embodiments include systems, vehicles, and computer-implemented methods to adjust a threshold level of force to be applied to a steering wheel to disengage an autosteering system. In an illustrative embodiment, a system includes a computing device operably coupled with a vehicle that includes a processor and a computer-readable media configured to store computer-executable instructions configured to cause the processor to: detect that an autosteering system of the vehicle is engaged; detect a level of force applied by an operator to a steering wheel of the vehicle; and disengage the autosteering system when the level of force surpasses a threshold chosen from a default threshold and an adjusted threshold, wherein the adjusted threshold is applied upon detecting a predetermined condition.
