The occupant-detection device is used to determine a degree-of-interest of an occupant of a vehicle. The degree-of-interest is determined with regard to a route traveled by the vehicle. The memory used to store an interest-score of the route. The interest-score is based on the degree-of-interest exhibited by the occupant while traveling the route. The system may include a controller. The controller is in communication with the occupant-detection device and the memory. The controller is configured to operate the vehicle. The controller selects a preferred-route from a plurality of possible-routes. The preferred-route is characterized by a maximum-value of a prior-score associated with each one of the plurality of possible-routes.
