There are young kids that drive carts and race and they don't confuse walls and solid objects. The reason we don't allow younger people to drive is because young people are bad at managing risk(I done some very stupid risky things with my bike as a teen, I could have broke my bones or neck),
Autopilot from Tesla that uses mostly or only cameras has the issue of identifying obstacles which is a much generic problem(that young animals and kids have it solved) so you don't need to appeal to the "age of driving" excuse for this guys.
- olyjohn 5y agoNot to mention, it's not just driving that makes you a good driver. It's 16 years of life experience. You spend that time growing up riding around in cars and busses. Living in the world, knowing how things work, learning how people behave. Driving is so much more than just pointing your wheel the way you want to go and pressing the gas and avoiding objects. So many people don't even know all the rules of the road, but still manage to drive just fine without accidents. There are different unknown rules of the road in all different places around the world, but most people figure out how to adapt to them in a very short time.
