Yeah NYC is crazy. One thing I saw this summer is streets in Little Italy and Chinatown with exactly one lane, and restaurant boxes on BOTH sides in the parking spots. So if there was a delivery truck that parked to unload, and there were, literally entire blocks of traffic would have to wait behind it. Sometimes a parking spot would open up between the restaurant boxes. The truck can pull in there a tiny bit but not all the way. Then maybe there is room for the driver behind to pass. They are scraping by with literally 1 to 3 inches of room, negotiating the space manually. I can't even see a remote driver handling this situation! I also think this "testing" won't lead to much concrete in the next 5-10 years. There will be data gathering and spinning of wheels. After all I think by 2016 they were also "testing" in a bunch of places, and 5 years later it's barely deployed.
