Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to enabling roadside assistance to a vehicle that requires assistance having an autonomous driving mode. For instance, a technician may be assigned to the vehicle that requires assistance. A signal corresponding to user input at a remote computing device requesting a change to a state of the vehicle may be received. The signal may be based on details of the assigned technician. Based on the validation, an instruction may be sent to the vehicle to change the state of the vehicle.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide for depot behaviors for autonomous vehicles. For instance, a signal to control an autonomous vehicle to a depot area may be received from a server computing device. A prioritized list of staging areas within the depot area may be identified. Each staging area of the prioritized list of staging areas enables the vehicle to observe stopping locations at which a need of the vehicle may be addressed. The vehicle may be controlled to a first staging area of the prioritized list. Once the vehicle has reached the first staging area, whether a stopping location that meets one or more needs of the vehicle is available may be determined. When is available, the vehicle may be controlled to the available stopping location. When not available, the vehicle may be controlled to a second staging area of the prioritized list.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide for enabling distribution or prepositioning of roadside assistance vehicles within a service area for a fleet of autonomous vehicles. For instance, a clustering approach may be used to determine an assignment identifying a plurality of cluster locations and respective assigned ones of the roadside assistance vehicles. The clustering approach uses a number of clusters corresponding to the number of the roadside assistance vehicles. Distribution information may be sent to computing devices associated with technicians of the respective assigned ones of the roadside assistance vehicles. The distribution information may enable the technicians of the respective assigned ones of the roadside assistance vehicles to proceed to the cluster locations of the determined assignment.
