Abstract

Autonomous driving technology, particularly Level 3 autonomy, promises to reduce highway accidents. Traditional fixed-rule approaches fail to account for driver variability and dynamic driving conditions. To address this, a "Personalized Takeover Framework" is proposed. This framework aims to adapt takeover processes to individual drivers and environments, enhancing safety, reducing stress, and promoting public acceptance. Objectives include developing adaptive protocols, ensuring safety and reliability, improving user experience, addressing ethical considerations, and conducting comprehensive testing. Leveraging advanced technologies like machine learning and real-time data analysis, this framework seeks to enhance the integration of autonomous vehicles into everyday transportation
