Systems and methods to ensure safe driving behaviors associated with remote

A method, comprising:

• receiving, by a processor associated with a teleoperator station via a network, location data and drive state information associated with a vehicle, the vehicle being positioned within an environment remote from the teleoperator station;
• receiving, by the processor, map data associated with the location data;
• determining, by the processor, safety tunnel parameters for the vehicle based at least in part on the location data and the map data;
• determining, by the processor, that the drive state information exceeds the safety tunnel parameters;
• and
• in response to determining that the drive state information exceeds the safety tunnel parameters:
• instructing, by the processor, modification to operation of the vehicle within the safety tunnel parameters;
• wherein the safety tunnel parameters comprise at least one of allowable steering angle, allowable yaw rate, allowable steering torque, or allowable acceleration.

A remote driving system, comprising:

• a vehicle within an environment, the vehicle comprising an imaging device;
• and
• a teleoperator station that is remote from the vehicle, the teleoperator station in communication with the vehicle via a communication network, the teleoperator station comprising a control interface, a presentation device, and a processor;
• wherein the processor is configured to at least:
• receive location data and drive state information associated with the vehicle;
• receive map data associated with the location data;
• determine safety tunnel parameters for the vehicle based at least in part on the location data and the map data;
• determine that the drive state information exceeds the safety tunnel parameters;
• and
• in response to determining that the drive state information exceeds the safety tunnel parameters:
• instruct modification to operation of the vehicle within the safety tunnel parameters;
• wherein the safety tunnel parameters comprise at least one of allowable steering angle, allowable yaw rate, allowable steering torque, or allowable acceleration.
