My car’s displayed a message that it’s radar systems (lane departure/etc) were unable to operate under these conditions. Do these Self Driving vehicles have 100% ability to operate under conditions as these? Scary!
We sort of need to speak like, think like a computer. Radar system, unable to operate.
Old school, driver's ed, HEY YOU SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING in these conditions-find a SAFE place to get off the road.
