Surprisingly, they are already testing in snow conditions. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3399315/The-driverless-car-cope-SNOW-Ford-vehicle-bli

  That 'testing' is taking place on the University of Michigan's M City track. I'm looking forward to testing during these conditions, in the real world, with someone behind the wheel acting as backup. I'll revise my 5-7 year comment then - I think it will this amount of time (if not more) for these autonomous vehicles to move beyond testing (prod) in winter climates. Driving on the interstate in a snow storm with semi trucks is no joke - there might actually be a threshold in which pulling over is the best option.
