Yes, humans can (I have) driven in extreme rain or fog where one can barely see one car length ahead. How? Simply by slowing down until you can see a few seconds ahead so there's time to stop if anything shows up in the field of (very limited) view.
The tesla software just continued at constant speed even though it couldn't see anything, completely oblivious.
That's the difference between a human driver and bad software.
- nashashmi 2y agoThat is an additional driving logic: if you can’t see in front of you, stop driving. But the test here was to avoid hitting the mannequin. In that perspective, the only form of evaluation is cam vs. lidar tech. The software is only as good as the human who programmed it.
