- raverbashing 9y agoCar wasn't speeding
- JustSomeNobody 9y agoYes, it was. Posted speed limits are for optimal conditions. Night driving is not optimal, so if the driver (robot or otherwise) outruns their visibility, then they're speeding.
- TomMarius 9y agoIt was going 20 km/h below the speed limit
- umanwizard 9y agoWho cares about the posted limit? If you can’t see in front of you well enough to avoid obstacles in time, you are going too fast by definition.
- TomMarius 9y agoThe word "speeding" refers to breaking the speed limit[1]. I agree with you completely, but you can't blame me for using words like they were supposed to. You might argue that this includes your point, but I've never seen it used like that. [1] - https://www.thefreedictionary.com/speeding https://www.thefreedictionary.com/speeding - "The act or instance of operating a motor vehicle or motorboat faster than allowed by law."
- JustSomeNobody 9y agoAnd by "... allowed by law", they do not mean the posted speed limit. They mean driving too fast for conditions to allow. https://www.nhtsa.gov/risky-driving/speeding https://www.nhtsa.gov/risky-driving/speeding > Speed also affects your safety even when you are driving at the speed limit but too fast for road conditions, such as during bad weather, when a road is under repair, or in an area at night that isn’t well lit.
