Recent multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have shown strong potential for autonomous driving scene understanding, yet existing methods still face a fundamental trade-off between temporal reasoning and spatial precision. Models that rely on single-frame or low-resolution inputs often miss small, distant, or partially occluded hazards, while language-centric driving models frequently provide limited grounded evidence for their explanations.

arXiv:2608. 04776v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The ability to accurately assess and anticipate risks in safety-critical scenarios is crucial for autonomous driving systems.
Safe autonomous driving requires both rapid responses to common high-risk events and deeper reasoning over rare, extreme long-tail scenarios in traffic safety. These scenarios are severely under-represented in naturalistic driving data, and existing trajectory and language-augmented datasets seldom provide high-risk event labels, semantic annotations, and verifiable safety signals.
RiskCueBench is a new video‑understanding benchmark that focuses on early risk cues in video‑language models. The dataset annotates the earliest moment in a video that signals a potential safety concern, rather than providing the full sequence that includes the accident. Experiments show a notable gap in current systems’ ability to interpret evolving situations and anticipate future risky events from these early visual signals.
