The Valley of Danger -- medium speed roads for robocars
Submitted by brad on Fri, 2014-01-10 11:19With last week's commercial release of the Navia, I thought I would release a new essay on the challenges of driving robocars at different speeds.
As the Navia shows, you can be safe if you're slow. And several car company "traffic jam assist" products say the same thing. On the other end, we see demos taking place at highway speeds. But what about the middle range -- decent speeds on urban streets?
