Claim 9:
10. A system for improving interaction of a plurality of autonomous vehicles within a driving environment including the autonomous vehicles, the system comprising:
a first autonomous vehicle of the plurality of autonomous vehicles, the first autonomous vehicle comprising:
a first group of one or more sensors configured to capture a first set of data relating to characteristics of a second autonomous vehicle driving within the driving environment;
a second group of one or more sensors configured to capture a second set of data relating to behaviors of one or more passengers within the first autonomous vehicle; and
a computer executing at least one of a first algorithm and a second algorithm, the first algorithm instructing the computer to:
determine a vehicle environment interaction (VEI) radius around the first autonomous vehicle, the second autonomous vehicle being within the VEI radius of the first autonomous vehicle;
receive the first set of data captured from the first group of one or more sensors,
calculate a VEI score based on the first set of data captured, the VEI score relating to a manner in which the second autonomous vehicle is driving, and
communicate the VEI score from the first autonomous vehicle to the second autonomous vehicle for the second autonomous vehicle to one or more of reinforce and correct the manner in which the second autonomous vehicle drives; and

the second algorithm instructing the computer to:
receive the second set of data captured from the second group of one or more sensors,
calculate a vehicle passenger behavior (VPB) score based on the second set of data captured, the VPB score relating to perceived emotions of the one or more passengers in the first autonomous vehicle, and
use the VPB score calculated to one or more of reinforce and correct the manner in which the first autonomous vehicle drives.
