Two cars in close quarters seems like the ideal application for driving assistants. Robots are much better at the actual mechanics of moving the car.

- InCityDreams 3y agoDoes that include knowing which wheels (the driving ones) would be better to keep off the verge whilst turning?
- MisterTea 3y ago> Robots are much better at the actual mechanics of moving the car. [citation needed] This is a very dubious statement and it really sounds like you have never driven a car or anything larger.
- rescripting 3y agoI mean, it seems self evident to me. Human perception + reaction time is eons compared to how quickly a computer can move the wheels and pedals. Whether the machine makes the _right_ decision is much more difficult, but a computer can actuate with speed and precision humans simply cannot.
- MisterTea 3y ago> Whether the machine makes the _right_ decision is much more difficult, This is why I said what I said; the OP wording implies they meant just that.
- Tempest1981 3y agoTrue. I saw a self-driving car (not a Tesla) approach a parked car from behind at around 15 mph, then at the last second, swerve around it, leaving what looked like a 6" gap. I was frightened, but impressed. (Good thing nobody opened the door.)
- dynisor 3y agoYeah, I agree. If everyone was in a self-driving car and predictable it would be fine. As it stands now, the car is basically trying navigate chaos. Humans already do a terrible job, yet we are expecting machines with less experience and less information to do better. It’s asinine.
