Aspects of the disclosure relate to maneuvering a vehicle in an autonomous driving mode. For instance, a time constraint for a pullover maneuver and a geographic constraint for the pullover maneuver may be identified. The time constraint and the geographic constraint may be input into a model in order to receive a list of qualities for a region, the region including a plurality of pullover locations. Whether to attempt to find a pullover location within the region to perform the pullover maneuver may be determined based on the list of qualities for the region. The vehicle may be maneuvered in the autonomous driving mode based on the determination whether to attempt to find a pullover location within the region.
