Zusammenfassung:A redundant-controls system (10) suitable for use an automated vehicle (12) includes a primary-control-device (14), a secondary-control-device (22), an occupant- detection-device (36), and a controller (42). The primary-control-device (14) is installed in a vehicle (12). The primary-control-device (14) is selectively enabled to allow operation from an operator-seat (16) of the vehicle (12) by an operator (18) of the vehicle (12) to control movement of the vehicle (12). The secondary-control-device (22) is installed in the vehicle (12). The secondary-control-device (22) is selectively enabled to allow operation from a passenger-seat (24) of the vehicle (12) by a passenger (26) of the vehicle (12) to control movement of the vehicle (12). The occupant-detection-device (36) is used to determine an operator-state-of-awareness (38) of the operator (18) and a passenger-state-of-awareness (40) of the passenger (26). The controller (42) is in communication with the primary-control-device (14),the secondary-control-dev
