Volvo engineers are said to be concerned for the success of next week's trials scheduled to be conducted in New Zealand, where large flocks of inflatable sheep are known to be found in and around the major population centres of the island nation. :wasntme:

I like his line about the car being set for cull not avoid! I wonder if that excuse will stand up in court - I must ask a magistrate I know what he would do if a passenger blamed his driverless car for causing an accident.

Time for a revisit of the tech over the last 6 years since this thread stopped. Good video here from Derek but the bit at the end is a little bit aspirational shall we say.

Google Maps .... right.

My street is a cul de sac with a park at the end, but Google Maps says that the footpath through the park is a road and it's a short cut around a crowded intersection two streets down. So about every 10 minutes all through the day a car will come screaming down our street heading down the short cut. When they get to the end the brakes go on and there's a pause. Then they come back. Occasionally they try to go down my neighbours driveway.

Edit: And Google Maps also says that the laneway at the back of our place is a road and shows it as through-road: it's not. Cue cars trying to reverse 400 metres back down a narrow laneway.
