I recall a study (and would be grateful if anybody has a link, as I cannot find it at the moment), which tested the reaction times and decision-making of drivers who had just been handed the wheel by an autopilot, in a simulated driving situation. What they found was that it took about 10 seconds before the drivers got up to the level even of a drunk driver.
To me, that study indicated a fatal flaw in the entire concept of hanging control back to the human driver. If there is an emergency, it will be resolved in 10 seconds one way or the other. At that point, you can either have the confused computer trying to drive, or the even more confused human trying to drive.
- qwertox 8y agoYou made me google it. I hit an article stating about 26 seconds reaction time, in extreme cases up to 30 seconds. Add 1.6 seconds when you're reading a magazine, which seems a bit short to me. This was a study from the University of Southampton, probably done around February 2017. https://www.zeit.de/mobilitaet/2017-02/autonomes-fahren-auto-fahrer-reaktionszeit https://www.zeit.de/mobilitaet/2017-02/autonomes-fahren-auto...
