I would imagine intercity travel is immensely easier to solve than intracity travel.

  On limited access highways, there are no pedestrians, no bicycles (mostly and not in traffic lanes), no turns, separation of travel in different directions, generally well-defined lanes, etc. Non-limited access highways aren't quite as straightforward but they still seem immeasurably easier than a busy city. Yes, speeds are higher but dealing with mostly well-defined problems like sudden braking at speed is something it seems as if computers should actually be pretty good at as opposed to all the random events that happen on city streets. [EDIT: Yes, I misread. I'm in violent agreement with the parent. :-) ]

    I think you read the parent comment wrong

      Indeed I did.
