Systems and methods for automated vehicle driving that mimic safe driver behaviors

A system comprising:

• at least one processor and
• a non-transitory memory coupled to the at least one processor,
• wherein the non-transitory memory stores:
• a safe maneuver database,
• a pattern database, and
• instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
• identify a pattern and a pattern response based on at least one of:
• (i) a movement of a driver of a vehicle, (ii) an object in front of the vehicle, (iii) a status of the vehicle, and (iv) an action of the vehicle, wherein the pattern response occurs in response to the pattern;
• compare the pattern response to the safe maneuver database, wherein the pattern response is classified as safe in response to the pattern response matching at least one safe pattern response of the safe maneuver database;
• integrate the pattern and the pattern response into the pattern database in response to the pattern response matching the at least one safe pattern response of the safe maneuver database;
• and
• in response to recognizing a first pattern:
• identify a first set of pattern responses stored in the pattern database, wherein the first set of pattern responses can safely be performed in response to recognizing the first pattern;
• compare each response of the first set of pattern responses to a previously programmed response;
• perform a first pattern response from the first set of pattern responses when a first safety score of the first pattern response is equal to or greater than a preset safety score of the previously programmed response;
• and
• perform the previously programmed response when the preset safety score of the previously programmed response is greater than the first safety score of the first pattern response.
