Sure, but in terms of traffic difficulty they've done like level 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and now they're jumping to 100! This is different.
It's not the most difficult place to drive (good luck in India, Turkey, southern Italy, etc.), but it's still far more challenging than any American city.
And it needs fundamentally new capabilities like being able to negotiate with other drivers visually and read implicit signals. You can't do it all just by following what the traffic lights say.

How would you rate the difficult of London vs. Boston?
- eszed 1y agoI've driven extensively in both, and London's hands-down more challenging°. Boston drivers are significantly more aggressive, though, so Waymo might find the reverse. I dunno. —— °Which makes it more fun: I love driving in London, but I'm a weirdo. My biggest regret about my last / first visit to Delhi is that I let my wife talk me out of driving. It may indeed have been a prudent choice, but I think I was there long enough to "get" enough to manage next time.
