In one embodiment, a first set of driving statistics is measured and collected from an autonomous driving vehicle (ADV) at different points in time in response to various control commands while the ADV is driving in various driving environments. Based on the first set of driving statistics, a search is conducted in each of the load calibration tables to find a load calibration table having similar driving statistics. One of the load calibration tables is selected, which contains a second set of driving statistics that are most similar to the first set of driving statistics. A current load of the ADV is determined based on the selected load calibration table, for example, by designating the load associated with the selected load calibration table as the current load of the ADV. The load of the ADV can be utilized as a factor for generating subsequent control commands for the ADV.
