The increasing adoption of end-to-end learning for autonomous driving introduces increased model complexity and opacity, raising the risk of learning undesired or erroneous behavior. In this work, we integrate unsupervised dictionary learning as a post hoc interpretability module within state-of-the-art driving models to decompose driving behavior into semantically meaningful concepts while demonstrating their causal influence on the model's driving decisions. We propose a stepwise framework for extracting and interpreting meaningful concepts from the end-to-end model and connecting them to th
