Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatuses are described for engaging autonomous driving algorithms based on driver frustration levels and vehicle conditions. A frustration level of a driver of a vehicle may be determined using one or more sensors. Based on a determination that the frustration level satisfies a threshold, one or more automated driving algorithms which may be engaged by the vehicle to improve the safety of the driver may be determined. The threshold may be based on a road segment traveled by the vehicle, the user, or similar considerations. Based on a determination that the frustration level satisfies a threshold, engagement of the one or more automated driving algorithms may be caused.
