This application describes an automated driving system and methods. The automated driving system includes a perception system disposed on an autonomous vehicle. The automated driving system can detect, using the perception system, information for an environment proximate to the autonomous vehicle. The information for the environment includes current behavior of an object of interest and traffic density information. The automated driving system can also determine a classifier for the environment based on a prediction of future behavior of the object of interest. Based on the classifier, the automated driving system can identify a transition between vehicle states, the vehicle states being associated with a planned action for the autonomous vehicle. The automated driving system can also send a command to one or more vehicle systems to control the autonomous vehicle to execute the planned action according to the transition.
