-65. (canceled)
A method of controlling a vehicle, comprising:
- receiving vehicle information from a low speed follow system;
- detecting a hazard based on the vehicle information;
- receiving monitoring information about a driver from a monitoring system, wherein the monitoring information includes head movement information about the driver and hand contact information about contact between the driver and a steering wheel of the vehicle;
- determining a driver state based on the monitoring information and the hazard;
- and
- modifying control of the vehicle based on the driver state.
