The problem with autonomous driving is if you were to swap all cars on the road to autonomous ones and banned pedestrians and cyclists except for traffic light controlled crossings, it would go swimmingly.
Barring that, it's absolutely impossible. It's not a kind of problem where more powerful hardware in five or ten years will just magically solve it.
Cyclists, pedestrians but even cars in a parking -- it's not just a moving object, it's a human giving clues which we can read based on experience. You are veering into full artificial vision if you want to read this.

Teslas, the cars with most widely deployed autonomous driving system (unlike say Waymo which is still geographically fenced), get confused by regular things such as lights (stop lights getting interpreted as a red light) and vehicles in front.
