Patent Images
1. A method, comprising:
- obtaining, by a processor associated with an autonomous vehicle, information with respect to a first vehicle;
maneuvering, by the processor, the autonomous vehicle to pursue the first vehicle responsive to the information indicating violation of one or more traffic laws by the first vehicle; and
remotely executing, by the processor, one or more actions with respect to the first vehicle,wherein the violation of one or more traffic laws by the first vehicle comprises exceeding a speed limit for a section of road on which the first vehicle travels, failure to stop at a stop sign, failure to stop at a red traffic light, or a combination thereof.

20. An apparatus implementable in an autonomous vehicle, comprising:
-
at least one sensor configured to detect a movement of a first vehicle and provide sensor data indicative of a result of the detecting; a communication device configured to wirelessly receive and transmit data; a vehicle control interface configured to communicate with one or more components of the autonomous vehicle for maneuvering of the autonomous vehicle; and a processor coupled to at least one sensor, the communication device and the vehicle control interface, the processor configured to perform operations comprising; determining a violation of one or more traffic laws by the first vehicle based on sensor data received from the at least one sensor, data received from the communication device, or a combination thereof; and maneuvering the autonomous vehicle, via the vehicle control interface, to pursue the first vehicle responsive to the determining of the violation, wherein the violation of one or more traffic laws by the first vehicle comprises exceeding a speed limit for a section of road on which the first vehicle travels, failure to stop at a stop sign, failure to stop at a red traffic light, or a combination thereof.
