In one embodiment, a control center receives a credential for a responder profile associated with a responder from each responder device in a plurality of responder devices and a signal for assistance from a vehicle. The signal for assistance includes sensor data associated with the vehicle. The control center communicates the sensor data to the responder devices. The control center receives a plurality of responses. Each of the responses is received from one of the responder devices, and each response indicates a possible action to be taken by the vehicle. The control center determines, based at least in part on a response from among the plurality of received responses, an answer to the signal for assistance. The answer indicates an action to be taken by the vehicle. The control center communicates the determined answer to the vehicle.
