Systems and methods for controlling an autonomous vehicle to reduce wasteful data usage are provided. In one example embodiment, a computing system can determine that a first autonomous vehicle is in an idle state in which the first autonomous vehicle is online with a service entity and is not performing a vehicle service. The computing system can obtain vehicle parameter(s) associated with the first autonomous vehicle that is in the idle state and environmental parameter(s). The computing system can determine a task for the first autonomous vehicle to perform while the first autonomous vehicle is in the idle state based at least in part on at least one of the vehicle parameter(s) or the environmental parameter(s). The computing system can communicate data indicative of the task for the first autonomous vehicle to perform while the first autonomous vehicle is in the idle state.
