Approaches to utilizing contextual right-of-way decision making for autonomous vehicles are disclosed. An autonomous vehicle is operated in a road setting within an operating environment having other road users. The operation of the autonomous vehicle is based on safety constraints providing limits on operation of the autonomous vehicle. The presence of a selected other road user within the operating environment is detected. Potential trajectories for the autonomous vehicle within the operating environment are evaluated with respect to the other road user. The autonomous vehicle interacts with the other road user by generating vehicle control signals based on a machine learned model and within the one or more safety constraints. The machine learned model is based on a hierarchy of costs corresponding to characteristics of maneuvers by the autonomous vehicle.
