It is detected that the vehicle is currently being operated in manual mode by a human driver. It is detected that a telecommunication device located within the vehicle is receiving a communication. The communication is classified according to a priority. The communication is acted upon based on the priority classification. The driver state is assessed at the conclusion of the communication. The vehicle returns to the manual driving mode if the driver state is compatible with the manual driving mode.
