Aspects of the disclosure relate to controlling transitions between driving modes of an autonomous vehicle. The vehicle may have a first mode that is a manual driving mode, a second mode that is an autonomous driving mode where a driver is expected to be present to take control, and a third mode where a driver is not expected to be present to take control. While operating in the second mode, a request to transition to the first mode may be received. In response, the vehicle may transition to the first mode. After transitioning to the first driving mode, the vehicle may be prevented from transitioning the first mode to the second mode or the third mode until a predetermined duration has passed even when input is received at one or more of a steering wheel, brake pedal, or accelerator during the predetermined period.
