In one example, a method for resolving sensor conflicts in autonomous vehicles includes monitoring conditions around the autonomous vehicle by analyzing data received from a plurality of sensors, detecting a conflict in the data received from two sensors of the plurality of sensors, sending a first instruction to an auxiliary sensor of the autonomous vehicle that is not one of the plurality of sensors, wherein the first instruction instructs the auxiliary sensor to gather additional data about the conditions around the autonomous vehicle, receiving the additional data from the auxiliary sensor, and making a decision regarding operation of the autonomous vehicle, wherein the decision is based at least in part on the additional data.
