The present invention relates to methods and arrangements for safety monitoring of a safety zone under and in near vicinity around a parked autonomous vehicle before driving, wherein the method comprise acquiring sensor data from an active sensor system located on the undercarriage of the vehicle, wherein the active sensor system is arranged to transmit a signal and receive the signal reflected off objects within the safety zone and store sensor data representative of substantially all of the safety zone, repeatedly building a representation of the safety zone by acquiring sensor data from the active sensor system; iteratively aggregating the representations of the safety zone with a statistical model, and continuously analysing the aggregation of representations and determining if a sensitive object is located within the safety zone of the vehicle.
