Abstract: A vehicle owned by an owner and previously used by a first user who previously exited the vehicle performs autonomous driving. The vehicle includes a memory, a wireless communicator, and a processor. The processor obtains data, such as a picture of a second user entering the vehicle and authenticates the second user when the second user's picture matches a picture stored in the memory. When this authentication fails, the vehicle telephones the owner or the first user to ask whether the second user should be authenticated. If the answer is yes, the processor actuates operation of the vehicle for the second user. If the answer is no, the processor instructs the vehicle to a) ask the second user to exit the vehicle, and b) move to a location specified by the owner or first user after confirming that the second person exits the vehicle.
