Abstract: Techniques for determining whether to limit an operation of a vehicle while operating in a manually assisted mode of operation are described herein. A vehicle computing system can monitor components of the vehicle and identify a fault associated with a component. The vehicle computing system can determine whether the fault is associated with a manual operation of the vehicle. Based on a determination that the fault is not associated with the manual operation of the vehicle (e.g., fault associated with an autonomous control component), the vehicle computing system can override the fault and enable continued operation of the vehicle in the manually assisted mode of operation. Based on a determination that the fault is associated with the manual operation of the vehicle, the vehicle computing system can cause the vehicle to cease operating.
