Original Abstract Submitted
Disclosed is a device for controlling autonomous driving. For example, the device detects an event that causes a determination of whether to transfer control of a host vehicle to a user while the host vehicle operates in an autonomous driving mode, outputs a first notification based on not receiving a user response associated with the transfer of control, outputs a second notification based on not receiving the user response associated with the transfer of control, and control the host vehicle to reduce a travel speed of the host vehicle at a first rate.
