According to some embodiments, described herein is a system and method for handling sensor failures in autonomous driving vehicles (ADV) that is navigating in a world coordination as an absolute coordination system. When the ADV encounters a sensor failure, but still has at least one camera working properly, the sensor failure handling system can switch the ADV from navigating in the world coordination to a local coordination, in which the ADV relies camera-based obstacle detection and lane mark detection to drive safely until human dis-engagement or until the ADV is parked along a road side.
