You are asserting that because information may be wrong or misunderstood it should not be communicated. A more robust approach would be to share information promiscuously and hold people, in this case the drivers who are responsible for their vehicles, responsible for how that information is handled.

Turn signals also get misused and misinterpreted but no one suggests that means we must go without.




I'm actually just asserting that systems advocating for use of V2V messages should account for misinformation.

That is, as a human I know that the drivers around me might have broken lights or misuse their signals.

I also assume that other drivers do not have my best interest at heart.

A reasonable V2V system should be expected to handle these scenarios just as easily as they handle wireless interference and packet loss.


Wouldn't that invalidate the whole concept of autonomous V2V interaction?
