Abstract

Device and method for safety stoppage of an autonomous road vehicle (2) having a localization system (3) and sensors (4) for monitoring the vehicle (2) surroundings and motion, and a signal processing system (5) for processing sensor signals enabling an autonomous drive mode thereof. Processing means (7) continuously: predict where a drivable space (8) exists; calculate and store a safe trajectory (10) to a stop within the drivable space (8); determine a current traffic situation; determine any disturbances in sensor data, vehicle systems or components enabling the autonomous drive mode. If an incapacitating disturbance is determined, a request for a driver to take over control is signaled and determined if a driver has assumed control within a pre-determined time. If not, the vehicle (2) is controlled to follow the most recent safe trajectory (10) to a stop in a safe stoppage maneuver during which, or after stopping, one or more risk mitigation actions adapted to the determined current traffic situation are performed.
