Techniques are described for determining failover to a redundant braking system. An example method can include a system determining a fault occurring in a braking system of an autonomous vehicle (AV) operating in an autonomous mode, the braking system comprising a first braking system and a second braking system, the fault occurring in at least one of the first braking system and the second braking system, and the AV using the first braking system. The system can further determine whether to switch from using the first braking system based at least in part on determining the fault. The system can further transmit to an alert system of the AV, a request to generate an alert for manual control of the AV based at least in part on determining the fault. The system can further deactivate the autonomous mode of the AV based at least in part on determining the fault.
