- googlemike 8y agoI am not convinced you understand this problem space well. The very notion of defining two such states is extremely elusive.
- threeseed 8y agoMight want to look into Toyota Guardian before dismissing the approach. As it's exactly what they are planning to roll out in the short to medium term.
- soup10 8y agowhat's elusive about it? there's some pretty obvious situations where you expect driverless cars to have trouble: bad weather, unusual traffic or pedestrian patterns, emergency vehicles, rarely travelled roadways...
- nradov 8y agoOutside of a few limited areas, remote control driving isn't a viable option due to the unreliability of cellular data networks.
- lsc 8y agomaking a safety-grade data network would be an interesting challenge. I do think it is a possible thing to do over limited areas, and I think that if we had defined areas that had safety-rated networks, that's a thing that self-driving cars could plan around... e.g. if you request a trip outside of those areas, the self driving car would take you as far as it could and then park, allowing you to prepare to drive manually.
