How do they stay in lane anyway?
Dunno what the road marking in SF are like, but my wife just pointed me Las Vega Blvd Sth webcam[*]. That's an 8 lane road through the main "sights" of Vegas and there's barely any lane markings at all. I wonder if any of these AV operators have tested out on roads like that yet?
[*] It's a live stream. You may need to scroll back in time to find daylight hours depending when you open the page. The camera follows a pre-programmed path, watch for the zoom in on the junction under the bridge. As far as I can see the visible lane marking are the stop lines and the separation between the 4 main lanes and the two left turn lanes. Having said that, I hear there's no lane marking on the 6(?) lanes around the Arc De Triomphe in Paris too. I need to see AVs handle situations like those before I'll even start have an inkling of trust in them.
