Toyota Sienna Incident

Manual control was initiated by a May autonomous shuttle operator for a right turn onto [XXX] in Atlanta, GA. Autonomous mode was then engaged. The autonomous system executed a stop due to a narrow passage obstructed by parked vehicles on both sides of the roadway and an approaching vehicle. Following the departure of the first vehicle and the next oncoming vehicle 80m away, the Autonomous Vehicle Operator (AVO) disengages and proceeds in manual. The AVO overcorrects to the right slightly and a minor contact with the parked car's mirror occurs. Our team looked at the incident and determined that this event was caused by human error - no autonomy software defects led to this incident.
