Intel's Responsibility-Sensitive Safety (RSS) - help autonomous vehicles act more assertive
"Here's something you don't often hear: Driverless cars are too obsessed with safety. But Intel and its subsidiary Mobileye think automated vehicles (AVs) should relax and take more risks, so they've developed a program called Responsibility-Sensitive Safety (RSS) to make AVs act more like human drivers. We know what you're thinking: Humans are terrible drivers. But Intel says more assertive AVs will make for safer, freer-flowing traffic."
https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a27243155/autonomous-vehicles-safety-intel-mobileye/
"... The system provides an AV with a playbook of preprogrammed rules that define safe and unsafe driving situations. Rather than playing it ultraconservative like most AVs, RSS allows the car to make more-assertive maneuvers, right up to the line that separates safe and unsafe. Much like a human driver, an RSS-equipped AV knows a crash is possible even if it merges onto the highway at the correct speed, but it won't dissolve into inaction based on the small chance that another car will misbehave."

2019 Ford Ranger 4x4 Review
One Note: "A pavement-friendly auto mode, like the one available in the Chevy Colorado, would allow the transfer case to behave like an all-wheel-drive center diff, ideal for on-road bad-weather conditions."
