1. A computer system for controlling a vehicle based on feedback from a driver of the vehicle, the system comprising:
- at least one processor circuit configured to;
connect to a user device, the user device associated with the driver of the vehicle and connected to the vehicle;
access, based on the connection, a profile associated with the driver of the vehicle, the profile including information regarding the driver'"'"'s medical conditions;
receive, from the user device, data about the driver of the vehicle;
send, to a natural language processing (NLP) system, the NLP system configured to process unstructured textual data, the data about the driver of the vehicle and the profile;
receive, from the NLP system, a determination based on data, including unstructured textual data, that the driver is cognitively disengaged;
transfer, based on the determination, control of the vehicle to an automated control node within the vehicle;
in response to determining the driver is cognitively disengaged, determine a severity of the driver'"'"'s cognitive disengagement;
determine, based on the severity, one or more contacts associated with the driver to contact; and
notify the one or more contacts of the driver'"'"'s cognitive disengagement.

Abstract
A vehicle can be controlled based on feedback from a driver of the vehicle when a mobile device is connected to a computer system. A profile for a driver can be used. The system can receive data about the driver from the mobile device. The data and answers can be sent to a natural language processing (NLP) system for analysis. The NLP system can return a determination that the user is cognitively disengaged, and thus unable to safely drive the vehicle. The system can then control the vehicle.

9. A computer program product for controlling a vehicle based on feedback from a driver of the vehicle, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, wherein the computer readable storage medium is not a transitory signal per se, the program instructions executable by a computer processing circuit to cause the circuit to perform a method comprising:
-
connecting to a user device, the user device associated with the driver of the vehicle and connected to the vehicle; accessing, based on the connecting, a profile associated with the driver of the vehicle, the profile including information regarding the driver'"'"'s medical conditions; receiving, from the user device, data about the driver of the vehicle; sending, to a natural language processing (NLP) system, the NLP system configured to process unstructured textual data, the data about the driver of the vehicle and the profile; receiving, from the NLP system, a determination based on data, including unstructured textual data, that the driver is cognitively disengaged; transfer, based on the determination, control of the vehicle to an automated control node within the vehicle; in response to determining the driver is cognitively disengaged, determining a severity of the driver'"'"'s cognitive disengagement; determining, based on the severity, one or more contacts associated with the driver to contact; and notifying the one or more contacts of the driver'"'"'s cognitive disengagement. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11)
