    Abstract: Apparatuses and methods for evaluating the risk factors of a proposed vehicle maneuver using remote data are disclosed. In embodiments, a computer-assisted/autonomous driving vehicle communicates with one or more remote data sources to obtain remote sensor data, and process such remote sensor data to determine the risk of a proposed vehicle maneuver. A remote data source may be authenticated and validated, such as by correlation with other remote data sources and/or local sensor data. Correlation may include performing object recognition upon the remote data sources and local sensor data. Risk evaluation is performed on the validated data, and the results of the risk evaluation presented to a vehicle operator or to an autonomous vehicle navigation system.

    Abstract: Apparatuses, methods and storage medium associated with computer-assisted or autonomous vehicle incident management, are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a vehicle incident management system includes a main system controller to determine whether a vehicle hosting the apparatus is involved in a vehicle incident; if so, whether another vehicle is involved; and if so, whether the other vehicle is equipped to exchange incident information; and an inter-vehicle communication subsystem to exchange incident information with the other vehicle, on determination that the vehicle is involved in a vehicle incident involving the other vehicle, and the other vehicle is equipped to exchange incident information. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.
