Method to obtain control data for personized operation of a self-driving motor vehicle

A method of acquiring control data in the form of a first data set of a rider of data of a plurality of scenarios and data of an operation behavior preferred by the rider in each of the plurality of scenarios comprises a testing apparatus performing the steps of:

• identifying the rider;
• informing the rider before the self-driving or vehicle conducts the operation according to the respective rider preferred operation behavior in each of the plurality of scenarios;
• obtaining a consent from the rider for responsibilities for consequences of the operation according to the respective rider preferred operation behaviors elected by the rider in each of the plurality of scenarios;
• or presenting to the rider the plurality of scenarios in the training collection of data and the one or more operation behaviors of the self-driving vehicle in the plurality of scenarios in the training collection of data;
• informing the rider of responsibilities for consequences of each of the operation behaviors in the plurality of scenarios in the training collection of data;
• obtaining a choice from the rider of one of the operation behaviors in each of the plurality of scenarios of the training collection data to form a scenario-user-choice pair of the respective scenario and the respective rider preferred operation behavior;
• storing the scenario-user-choice pair in the first data set;
• or receiving previously acquired scenario-user-choice pairs into the first data set.
