The problem with autonomous shuttles on campuses, especially university/college campuses, is that people who are walking can be very unpredictable, and doubly-so if they are listening to music with headphones.
I had a student job where I would drive our golf cart all over campus and it was awful at times when there would be many students out during class change, arriving on campus, or leaving. People don't pay attention or they take chances on their bikes/longboards.
- ergothus 11y agoVery true - but a big appeal about autonomous vehicles is that they can (or will) perform better than most humans in these situations. Human drivers are not immune to these problems, and campus drivers are just as prone to human error.
