A visibility grid is determined for at least one external object within an operational environment of an autonomous vehicle. The visibility grid represents areas visible and areas obstructed for the external object. When the autonomous vehicle is positioned within an occluded region relative to the visibility grid of the external object is identified. Driving parameters of the autonomous vehicle are altered in response to being in the occluded region to avoid collision with the external object.
