You don't think it was going to stop if the pedestrian stepped out in front? If autonomous cars can't do that, they can't do anything.



Who knows? This Volvo didn't: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsTxS6tg6xc


It's not an autonomous car and that particular car doesn't even have "pedestrian detection system" installed. It only can detect big objects like cars without optional hardware.


It's driverless. Are you sure that Uber had a pedestrian detection system?
