A vehicle may include a primary system and a secondary system to validate operation of the primary system and to control the vehicle to avoid collisions. For example, the secondary system may receive multiple trajectories from the primary system, such as a primary trajectory and a secondary, contingent, trajectory associated with a deceleration or other maneuver. The secondary system may determine if a trajectory is associated with a potential collision, if the trajectory is consistent with a current or previous pose, if the trajectory is compatible with a capability of the vehicle, etc. The secondary system may select the primary trajectory if valid, the secondary trajectory if the primary trajectory is invalid, or another trajectory generated by the secondary system if the primary trajectory and the secondary trajectory are invalid. If no valid trajectory is determined, the vehicle may decelerate at a maximum rate.
