1. A vehicle comprising:
- at least one autonomous driving sensor configured to monitor at least one condition while operating in an autonomous mode;
a processing device configured to identify at least one occupant, select a profile associated with the occupant, and autonomously operate at least one subsystem according to the selected profile and the at least one condition monitored by the at least one autonomous driving sensor,wherein the processing device is programmed to transmit an override request to temporarily disable a driving restriction associated with the profile of the occupant, and wherein the processing device is programmed to temporarily disable the driving restriction in response to receiving an override authorization and output a message to the at least one occupant if the override request is denied, andwherein the processing device is programmed to select a default response to the override request if the override authorization is not received within a predetermined period of time after transmitting the override request, wherein the default response includes temporarily approving the override request.

13. A method comprising
identifying at least one vehicle occupant; -
selecting a profile associated with the at least one vehicle occupant; autonomously operating at least one vehicle subsystem according to the selected profile; transmitting an override request to temporarily disable a driving restriction associated with the selected profile; receiving, at a processing device, an override authorization to temporarily disable the driving restriction if the override request is authorized; outputting a message to the at least one vehicle occupant if the override request is denied; and selecting a default response to the override request if the override authorization is not received within a predetermined period of time after transmitting the override request, wherein the default response includes temporarily approving the override request. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A vehicle comprising:
-
at least one autonomous driving sensor configured to monitor at least one condition while operating in an autonomous mode; an occupant identification system configured to output an occupant identification signal representing at least one vehicle occupant; a processing device configured to identify the at least one occupant based on the occupant identification signal, select a profile associated with the identified occupant, and autonomously operate at least one subsystem according to the selected profile and the at least one condition monitored by the at least one autonomous driving sensor; wherein the selected profile defines at least one driving restriction and wherein the processing device is configured to receive a user input requesting an override of at least one of the driving restrictions and output a message to the at least one occupant if the override request is denied, wherein the processing device is programmed to select a default response to the override request if the override authorization is not received within a predetermined period of time after transmitting the override request, wherein the default response includes temporarily approving the override request.
