In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a disengagement likelihood; operating a steering system controlling one or more wheels based on a steering signal; selecting a stimulus pattern that if executed causes the steering system to deviate the one or more wheels from the steering signal; and executing the stimulus pattern if the disengagement likelihood is above a first threshold.
