One of the key things that Self Driving Vehicles need to learn from humans is how to predict other humans/vehicles. Predicting which vehicle is going to drive unsafely, or even with excessive caution is not just responding to the position (speed and acceleration) of a vehicle, but how it acts relative to predictions (and how well it is predicting your actions), and fits into a type of driver model. And then knowing that all of that will change when a traffic cop is visible or not, the start of a rain, sunset, kids/pets acting up.
That's why driving in different cities for an experienced driver can be so nerve wracking... it's hard to predict what all those vehicles will do! Meanwhile they are also predicting what you will do so you're dangerous as well (don't stop in traffic just because a pedestrian walks into the middle of a busy street in Delhi or Naples, you'll cause an accident).
