Abstract

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed for operating a vehicle. The vehicle is operated by tracking a location of the vehicle, a vehicle configuration and external conditions around the vehicle over a time period. A repetitive occurrence is identified, the repetitive occurrence having a start condition and an end condition and a transition path between the start position and the end condition. The number of times the repetitive occurrence occurs during the time period is determined and compared to a first threshold. When the first threshold is satisfied and the vehicle is located at the start condition, a function is provided, that when activated by an operator of the vehicle, will automatically transition the vehicle along the transition path between the start position and the end condition.
