Abstract

A method for controlling a driving mode transition of an autonomous driving vehicle may safely perform a lane change to avoid a collision accident with the other vehicle and prevent an injury to a joint, etc., while minimizing a sense of heterogeneity of a driver according to minimization of rotational steering of a steering wheel by determining whether the other vehicle in a next lane suddenly cuts in in an autonomous driving controller while the autonomous driving vehicle is driving in a manual driving mode and determining a safety distance from a rear vehicle to minimize rotational steering of the steering wheel held by the driver and at the same time perform partial braking control by autonomous driving mode transition control using an autonomous driving controller.
