Systems and methods for complementary control of an autonomous vehicle are disclosed. A primary controller provides a first plurality of instructions to an AV platform for operating the AV in an autonomous mode along a planned path based on sensor data from a primary sensor system and a secondary sensor system, and provides information that includes a fallback monitoring region to a complementary controller. The complementary controller receives sensor data from the secondary sensor system that includes sensed data for a fallback monitoring region, analyzes the received sensor data to determine whether a collision is imminent with an object detected in the fallback monitoring region, and cause the AV platform to initiate a collision mitigation action if a collision is determined to be imminent.
