Described is a two-level optimal path planning process for autonomous tractor-trailer trucks which incorporates offline planning, online planning, and utilizing online estimation and perception results for adapting a planned path to real-world changes in the driving environment. In one aspect, a method of navigating an autonomous vehicle includes determining, by an online server, a current vehicle state of the autonomous vehicle in a mapped driving area. The method includes receiving, by the online server from an offline path library, a path for the autonomous driving vehicle through the mapped driving area from the current vehicle state to a destination vehicle state, and receiving fixed and moving obstacle information. The method includes adjusting the path to generate an optimized path that avoids the fixed and moving obstacles and ends at a targeted final vehicle state, and navigating the autonomous vehicle based on the optimized path.
