Claim 10:
11. A method, comprising:
receiving, at a computing system, a request to store sensor system outputs for a specific predefined event type, wherein the specific predefined event type comprises a type of event detectable by at least one sensor system of an autonomous vehicle; and
responsive to receiving the request, remotely causing the autonomous vehicle to update storage priorities respectively associated with various predefined event types, wherein a specific storage priority associated with the specific predefined event type and a differing storage priority associated with a differing predefined event type are remotely caused to be changed based on the request to store the sensor system outputs for the specific predefined event type such that subsets of sensor system outputs of both the specific predefined event type and the differing predefined event type are stored responsive to the specific storage priority and the differing storage priority being changed, wherein the specific storage priority controls a likelihood that the autonomous vehicle stores the sensor system outputs of detected occurrences of the specific predefined event type such that a subset of the sensor system outputs of the detected occurrences of the specific predefined event type are stored by the autonomous vehicle and a remaining subset of the sensor system outputs of the detected occurrences of the specific predefined event type are discarded by the autonomous vehicle.
