Zusammenfassung:A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for generating speed profiles for autonomous vehicles in safety risk situations for a road segment. In this regard, a road segment associated with a safety risk profile is identified based at least in part on road condition data related to the road segment. Furthermore, probe data is obtained from one or more probe apparatuses traveling along the road segment associated with the safety risk profile. Based at least in part on the probe data, a speed profile for modeling velocity of autonomous vehicles along the road segment is generated. Additionally, an indication of the speed profile is provided to one or more autonomous vehicles to facilitate navigation of the one or more autonomous vehicles along the road segment.
