    I’ve concluded either self driving vehicles need to be completely isolated from all the humans on/near public roads doing a bunch of unexpected things, or it would take an actual artificial intelligence to really share the roads with human drivers. And once you have actual artificial intelligence that opens up a whole new set of logistical, ethical, and possibly existential problems.

      You mean like put them underground and maybe on rails and then make them bigger to support more people? Like like like a Subway?

        Yeah like a train or subway. Still, trains and subways don’t have to deal with traffic conditions but they still are expected to attempt an emergency stop if there is a hazard ahead. Self-driving cars don’t even do that reliably.
