1. A method for controlling folding and unfolding of a foldable vehicle using a controller, the method comprising:
using the controller, receiving a folding or unfolding command;
using the controller, obtaining sensed data from one or more sensors located on the vehicle for sensing parameters associated with assessing risk to the vehicle;
using the controller, assessing the risk;
using the controller, checking whether the risk is below a threshold;
using the controller, commencing the folding or unfolding if the risk is below a threshold;
using the controller, checking whether the folding or unfolding is complete; and
if the folding or unfolding is not complete, obtaining sensed data from the one or more sensors, assessing the risk and checking whether the risk is below a threshold until the folding or unfolding is complete.
