1. A method for effectuating a mode of operation in an autonomous vehicle, comprising: processing sensor data associated with the autonomous vehicle to determine at least one sensed road-vehicle friction change associated with at least one travel segment, wherein the autonomous vehicle is operating in an autonomous mode; calculating at least one expected friction change from friction data of at least one guideline friction map for the at least one travel segment, wherein the friction data of the at least one guideline friction map is aggregated from a plurality of vehicles that previously traveled on the at least one travel segment; comparing the at least one sensed road-vehicle friction change to the at least one expected friction change; and determining at least one response action to change the mode of operation of the autonomous vehicle from the autonomous mode to a manual mode based on the comparison.
