Claim 7:
8. A vehicle comprising:
a sensor disposed on the vehicle;
one or more processors; and
one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing instructions executable by the one or more processors, wherein the instructions, when executed, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
determining a drivable area for the vehicle;
receiving sensor data from the sensor;
determining, based at least in part on the sensor data, an object parameter of an object proximate the vehicle is traversing;
determining, based at least in part on the object parameter, a predicted trajectory of the object;
modifying the drivable area, based at least in part on the predicted trajectory of the object, to generate a modified drivable area, wherein the modified drivable area includes the predicted trajectory of the object;
determining, based at least in part on a trajectory of the vehicle being within a threshold distance of a boundary of the modified drivable area, whether to modify the trajectory; and
controlling the vehicle based at least in part on whether to modify the trajectory.
