1. A remote monitoring device for a fleet of autonomous motor vehicles making it possible for an operator to pilot the fleet remotely and comprising at least one display screen, the remote monitoring device being able to receive at least one piece of information from at least a first sensor monitoring the environment of a vehicle of interest in the fleet, the remote monitoring device being able to display the at least one piece of information on the display screen, wherein the remote monitoring device is positioned in a remote control station located at a distance from the autonomous motor vehicles, the remote monitoring device comprising:
a processing module configured to determine a measuring uncertainty of the at least one piece of information sent by the at least one first sensor and/or to measure a lag between the sending of the at least one piece of information by the at least one first sensor and the display of the at least one piece of information on the display screen;
a limiting module configured to limit the piloting of said vehicle of interest by the operator as a function of the determined uncertainty and/or the measured lag; and
an alert module configured to emit an alert signal as a function of the determined uncertainty and/or the measured lag, wherein the display screen is configured to display the alert signal.
