    Humans make the same mistakes though. Backup cameras were added to cars because humans kept running over people, especially kids. People block emergency vehicles all the time.

    Yes, the automation will always have room for improvement, but the current ‘newsworthy’ incidents are rarely in the news when humans do the exact same thing.

      I would be pretty confused as well if someone ran up to my car and stuck a traffic cone on it.

        Would you sit stopped in traffic for 20 minutes looking dumbfounded?

          I would if I couldn’t get out of the car and remove it.
