The article talks about "no lanes, no separation, no stopping distances, and no signals, (except of course for pedestrians to cross)", though. How will no traffic signals work with manual traffic? For example, in an intersection with no stop signs and no "invisible traffic lights", how would a constant stream of automated traffic know that a bicycle is waiting to cross?
