Abstract: Motor vehicles and methods for operating motor vehicles are disclosed herein. An example motor vehicle includes an electric drive, an electrical brake including one or more braking actuators, a drive controller communicatively coupled to the electric drive and the electrical brake, and a brake controller communicatively coupled to the electrical brake. The drive controller is to cause the one or more braking actuators to actuate in response to a signal indicating a failure of the brake controller.

Abstract: A system includes a first vehicle computer programmed to monitor first vehicle sensor data as the first vehicle traverses a route; identify a location of interest along the route based on a topographic feature of the location of interest determined from the first vehicle sensor data; and store a selected subset of the first vehicle sensor data for the location of interest in a set of collected data about the route. The system further includes a second computer programmed to receive the collected data about the route; and based on the collected data about the route, generate a set of guidance data including one or more recommended operating parameters for the location of interest, whereby the recommending operating parameters are available to a third computer for a second vehicle.

Abstract: A system for braking a host vehicle. A memory storing instructions executable by a processor includes instructions to actuate friction brakes in the host vehicle when a brake condition occurs. The brake condition includes that the host vehicle is parked on a roadway, a person is located exterior to the host vehicle, and an approaching vehicle will come within a distance threshold of the host vehicle.
