1. A method for operating a host motor vehicle which is configured to drive to a predefined destination autonomously, the method comprising:
- detecting, by at least one driver command detection device, a driver command, wherein the driver command comprises a driver of the host motor vehicle directing the driver'"'"'s eyes toward an observation target, the driver command being unprompted by a control unit;
determining, by the control unit, wherein the control unit has at least one processor, an autonomous driving action of the host motor vehicle corresponding to the driver command;
receiving, by at least one driver verification command detection device, at least one verification command, wherein the at least one verification command actuates the autonomous driving action; and
actuating, by the control unit, the autonomous driving action of the host motor vehicle upon receiving the at least one verification command.

15. A control system for an autonomous driving motor vehicle configured to drive to a predefined travel destination autonomously, the control system comprising:
-
a navigation system configured to receive data describing a surrounding environment of the motor vehicle; a surround sensor system configured to receive data describing the surrounding environment of the motor vehicle; a control unit including at least one processor; at least one driver command detection device configured to detect a driver command, wherein the driver command comprises a driver of the motor vehicle directing the driver'"'"'s eyes toward an observation target, the driver command being unprompted by the control unit; the control unit being configured to determine an autonomous driving action of the motor vehicle corresponding to the driver command; at least one driver verification command detection device configured to receive at least one verification command, wherein the at least one verification command actuates the autonomous driving action; and the control unit being further configured to actuate the autonomous driving action of the motor vehicle upon receiving the at least one verification command.
