... but isn't rush hour traffic basically that? Car in front of you starts to move forward then sometimes suddenly stops. People usually have experience with this, though it's a whole other category compared to entering a seemingly empty intersection as the second car and the first car slams the brakes because it turns out the intersection wasn't empty.
- throwaway0a5e 6y ago> but isn't rush hour traffic basically that? Car in front of you starts to move forward then sometimes suddenly stops It may be sudden but it's also predictable. The participants know that the car in front of them will stop, possibly quickly and are prepared. A car (human or AI piloted) stepping on the brakes in the middle of a green light because a pedestrian anticipating the car's departure from the intersection began to step off the curb is far less predictable and arguably violated established traffic behavioral norms. Predictable traffic is safe traffic.
