Abstract: Concerns regarding the safety of partial automated vehicles (AVs) remain prevalent, especially in complex roadway environments. AVs incorporate Advanced Driving Assistance Systems to perform the dynamic driving task; however, unexpected disengagements of the systems still occur due to various contextual and infrastructural factors. Among these, two-lane rural roads—with their geometric design and operational challenges—represent a critical setting. Notably, a high number of disengagements are concentrated on horizontal curves.
