- tjoff 9y agoHow do you guess? Oh, you need another set of hundred million miles of testdata for this case? The thing is that it is vastly different from any other scenario a self-driving car will ever experience or train for. Humans on the other hand grow up with snow and know how it behaves, how it covers the environment and what features are prevalent despite of it (and consequently, people not used to snow that suddenly finds themselves in a snow-covered landscape often fail miserably). Falling snow can significantly cover both video and disrupt LIDAR immensely. Just as our vision, thing is we already know how to cope with it, it is a greatly different problem than driving in good/ok conditions.
