To say nothing of snow.
- jonknee 15y agoCars are already better at navigating snow by themselves than with people at the [direct] controls. Traction control and drive by wire are common.
- themonk 15y agoTrue, but car can't see lane marks and can't even recognize where the road is once it is covered in snow.
- jonknee 15y agoNeither can people, but computers have the ability to see through the dark, rain and snow. They have the benefit of GPS. They have the benefit of being able to work with embedded sensors in the roadway (which to be fair is in its infancy, but you know that's where it's going). I like people a lot, but I would not bet on a person driving better than a computer. Our reaction time is way too slow and sensory input very limited.
