I do not know why we are not just replacing all of those little tiny reflectors on freeways with with something standardized specifically for use with self driving cars. Seems like it would be a hell of a lot more reliable if those not only served as a visual indicator for humans but also a direct indicator for self driving cars themselves (could also be visual or some form of digital technology like a ranged / vehicle version of NFC, etc etc).
- LegitShady 4y agobecause your local transportation doesn't have unlimited money to replace simple reflectors with something 'standardized' for self driving cars that aren't themselves standardized and that represent a miniscule percentage of the cars on the road. its not difficult, its just so expensive and serving a basically irrelevant portion of the road using public.
