In Reply to: The technology permitting cars to sense traffic signals is here now... posted by Steve O on March 25, 2017 at 21:18:52:
I wouldn't live much longer with AI making a decision based on a traffic signal input. I exit my neighborhood onto a busy 4 lane road via a traffic light. Drivers on the 4 lane road (with a 50 mph speed limit) routinely fly through that intersection at speeds well in excess of 50 mph regardless of what color the light is in their direction. If you don't look after the light turns green and wait for the light runner to come barreling through, you'd be toast. Life expectancy? Maybe a week.
Only way this could work is if ALL cars were running on AI, and the AI control could not be disabled. That would piss off a lot of drivers on this particular 4 lane road. :)
