Formal modeling and verification of autonomous driving systems remain challenging due to the vast operational space and the complexity of the control logic. We propose a hybrid verification approach that combines formal model verification and runtime monitoring for the trajectory-following control node of Autoware, an open-source autonomous driving platform. We formalize the controller as a hybrid system in differential dynamic logic (dL), and introduce an abstract model that captures the essential control dynamics. We then prove safety and liveness properties of the model using the KeYmaera X proof assistant. Complementarily, we monitor the constraints that assure the compatibility between the model and the Autoware implementation across numerical simulation runs using the Autoware toolchain, quantifying to what extent the implementation's behavior is subsumed by the verified model. The experimental results confirmed that (i) monitoring provides a sound evaluation of target following with accuracy bounds, and (ii) the Autoware implementation reaches the target with an accuracy of approximately 0.2-0.4 (m) in position and 0.8 (m/s) in velocity.
