The present technology is directed to training and using a machine learning model to predict a likelihood of a counterfactual safety critical event in autonomous vehicle (AV) driving in a projected scenario occurring after a human takes over control of an AV. An AV management system can identify driving data collected from periods around an occurrence of a human take over event where a human takes over control of an AV. The AV management system can project a scenario that would have resulted if the human did not take over control of the AV based on the driving data and output a counterfactual safety score for the projected scenario. The counterfactual safety score can indicate a probability of a counterfactual collision between the AV and the at least one object in the projected scenario.
