There are very few brick roads in Pittsburgh. Most are in older sections of the city where the residents have lobbied against a paved road for one reason or another.
And I would imagine steep hills and icy conditions are exactly what you want to test self-driving cars on to see how they handle it.
- graphitezepp 9y agoTo be pedantic, I think saying there are very few is misleading. There are very few outside of older neighborhoods like you say, but there are plenty of small brick/cobblestone roads around. Just not many heavily traveled or particularly long ones.
