A method for certified control of a self-driving ego vehicle is described. The method includes analyzing a safety situation of the self-driving ego vehicle to determine a proposed vehicle control action using a main controller of the self-driving ego vehicle. The method also includes presenting, by the main controller, the proposed vehicle control action to an interlock controller, including a certificate of the proposed vehicle control action. The method further includes checking a safety certification evidence from the certificate by the interlock controller using a predefined safety argument to verify the safety certification evidence of the certificate. The method also includes directing, by a low-level controller, the self-driving ego vehicle to perform a certified vehicle control action.
