As an example, he cites city bike paths, which he says are “empty at certain times and dangerous to use at others.” He goes on to state that “road studs will have to be retractable or flexible over the course of the day in order to facilitate traffic and deliveries.”...
There is good reason to be encouraged by the progress that AV developers are making with autonomous driving systems that keep drivers safe, but anyone getting too enchanted with the current state of autonomous technology should click on the video below, which illustrates the significant problems AVs...
Semiautonomous driving systems are designed to ignore unmoving obstacles because otherwise, they couldn't work at all.
The engines of such vehicles are very often designed to ensure that they cannot drive faster than law permits (for electronic scooters the speed limit is often 20 km/h, and for 50 cc mopeds it is 45 km/h). Applying a similar speed restriction to cars would have clear benefits in...
