Bright thing ahead = sky, not truck.
Teslas's response: "If Robocar had hit the truck differently, meatsack wouldn't be dead. Happens all the tim... we can probably patch i... GO TESLA!"
Explain to me again how these things are going to deal with London traffic when they can't spot a bleedin' truck right in front of them. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

To be fair, the google self driving cars have done exceptionally well for themselves, accidents per mile.
Infact they have been driving toooo well as almost all accidents have been caused because other people who have no expected the google car to abide by minor rules of the road.
Ie, slowing down on a duel carriageway for a vehicle broken down on the side and the car behind went into the back of him.
Technically you should slow down when passing a broken down vehicle but how many people actually do although its arguable that the driver behind Should have been paying attention whilst on the duel carriageway.
I do believe they are/will be safer than driving yourself but as long as they are in an environment where un expected events (people) or challenging environments (bright sky, wrong kind of snow... ) are present, there will be some casualties...
That being said, le'Borg's title is far more exciting than "Self driving car fatal crashes still statistically significantly lower than standard set by meatbags".
without the issue of having to drive though, would the age you can use these be lowered? How old do you have to be before you can ride in a taxi alone?

Did the car stop when it had completed the slaughter of the occupant or did it just carry on along the motorway? ____________________ My Flickr |
