Yes, and it sounds like a fairly fundamental flaw. Does the car have sensors that can determine pulling over is the wrong thing to do in this situation?
In general, getting out of the way is the right course of action, but this clearly shows that there are exceptions. I'm not sure that the vehicles are currently equipped for differentiating to even be possible.
- WesternWind 3y agoCan the car detect screams of pain? Because I as a driver can.
- _ea1k 3y agoIt should be able to, but what if the person was unconscious? As a human, we'd detect this in other ways. I'd expect the car to use cameras and sensors.
- rob74 3y agoIn case of a serious accident, especially one where a person has come to harm, not blocking traffic shouldn't be the main concern anymore IMHO...
- _ea1k 3y agoAgreed, and regardless of state after impact, it should have been able to determine that someone had been hurt by the collision. That might be the fix in this case, just hard stop for all cases of pedestrian impact.
- fudged71 3y agoA human driver (and owner of the vehicle) would get out to assess the damage. So in the absence… Remain where you are until a trained professional gives you directions. Fire/police/ambulance should have some way to direct the vehicle.
