What's expected of a normal driver when the headlights fail? Turning on the hazard blinkers, slowing down carefully, and finding their way to the shoulder?
There's also a reason there are two headlights.
- Enginerrrd 7y agoAh yes, I can't wait for my future where my car refuses to drive me because one of the headlight sensors shows it's failed when it's working fine and the other is fine.
- anchpop 7y agoIf the cameras only see darkness, which would be a giveaway that the headlights are not working, I would prefer the car not drive itself
- hanniabu 7y agoCorrect, the visibility is the thing you'd want to look out for because it applies to a wide range of issues, including a camera with a blocked lens (either intentionally or by something like a wet leaf).
