Original Abstract Submitted
aspects of the disclosure provide a method of generating and following planned trajectories for an autonomous vehicle. for instance, a baseline for a planned trajectory that the autonomous vehicle can use to follow a route to a destination may be determined. a stopping point corresponding to a traffic control that will cause the autonomous vehicle to come to a stop using the baseline may be determined. sensor data identifying objects and their locations may be received. a plurality of constraints may be generated based on the sensor data. a planned trajectory may be generated using the baseline, the stopping point, and the plurality of constraints, wherein constraints beyond the stopping point are ignored.
