Self-driving cars' shortcomings revealed in DMV reports
https://www.mercurynews.com/2018/05/01/self-driving-cars-shortcomings-revealed-in-dmv-reports/
The disengagement reports themselves identify other problems
some self-driving vehicles struggle with, for example heavy
pedestrian traffic or poorly marked lanes. In describing the
events that caused their backup drivers to take the controls,
the companies have provided a new window into the
road-worthiness -- or not -- of their cars and systems.
Baidu, a Chinese internet-search giant, reported a case in
which driver had to take over because of a faulty steering
maneuver by the robot car; several cases of "misclassified"
traffic lights; a failure to yield for cross traffic; delayed
braking behind a car that cut quickly in front; drifting out
of a lane; and delayed perception of a pedestrian walking into
the street.
