Have any of the AV teams said anything about testing in hazardous road conditions yet?
Driving rain, thick fog, heavy snow, sleet, the like. Maybe the answer they'll give is, "Don't drive you dummy", but that's not really an acceptable solution for most people.

I'm not saying that they are not busy in the cockpit,but there was a case where a plane crashed because the pilot didn't know how to regain control of the plane after the autopilot disengaged.

- Denvercoder9 11y agoWhen you look at just the miles driven in June (by comparing the totals with those in the May report), more than two-thirds were driven autonomous this month.
