Remote Takeover
A safety fallback mechanism in autonomous driving systems whereby, when the vehicle's autonomous system cannot handle a complex scenario, a human operator intervenes remotely from a control center to issue decision commands or directly assume control of the vehicle.

Remote Assistance/Teleoperation is currently the primary fallback mechanism for Robotaxis when handling complex emergency scenarios, where a vehicle unable to make a judgment sends a request to a back-end operator for a human to remotely take over or provide decision-making instructions
The remote takeover mechanism has inherent limitations: network latency, operator response time, and the upper limit of capacity to simultaneously handle requests from multiple vehicles all affect its practical effectiveness
