1. An apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one non-transitory memory including computer program code instructions, the computer program code instructions configured to, when executed, cause the apparatus to:
receive historical data indicating events in which drivers maneuvered vehicles to encounter curbs, the historical data indicating vehicle attributes associated with the vehicles, map data indicating attributes of road portions including the curbs, and sensor data indicating orientations of drivers within the vehicles;
based on the historical data, train a machine learning model to predict a likelihood in which a target driver will not be able to see a target curb at a target road portion when the target driver is maneuvering a target vehicle; and
update a map layer to include the likelihood at the target road portion.
