A system for communicating a driving mode of an autonomous vehicle (AV) comprises the AV, a control device, and a notification device. The control device defines a threshold region around the AV. The control device receives sensor data from sensors of the AV. The control device detects presence of a vehicle from the sensor data. The control device determines a distance between the vehicle and the AV. The control device determines that the vehicle is within the threshold region based on determining that the distance between the vehicle and the AV is within the threshold region. While the AV is operating in the autonomous mode, the control device triggers the notification device to notify the vehicle that the AV is operating in the autonomous mode, where notifying that the AV is operating in the autonomous mode comprises presenting a visual notification and/or communicating a data message to other vehicles.
