Embodiments provide a vehicle computer coupled to a vehicle. The vehicle computer may be configured to receive sensor data from a plurality of sensors of the autonomous vehicle, analyze the sensor data, predict a need for a steering torque overlay based on analyzing the sensor data, determine a steering torque overlay output based on at least the sensor data, provide the steering torque overlay output to a steering system of the vehicle, and control the steering system in view of the steering torque overlay output. The steering torque overlay output is provided to the steering system while the vehicle is transitioning from an autonomous mode or a manual mode to a hybrid mode where the steering system is controlled simultaneously by the vehicle computer and a driver when the steering torque overlay output is applied.
