Interesting, wonder if it will become necessary to build automated car coordination networks past a certain density. Systems like these could get into funny feedback loops where one car stops dead, causing the next one to stop dead, take off, rinse and repeat. Or, my favorite part of living near Boston, the traffic circles; I can't wait for the day a convoy of automated cars deadlocks a rotary :-)
