Had the shuttle had a human that the truck had, he could have seen the danger before the sensor did.

I dunno. Was a backing accident. Guess it’d depend on whether human driver could have also thrown it into reverse in time and had nothing behind to block his own back.

From what I heard the human was at fault.

This article posted today does point out that a human driver probably would have at least been honking his horn (shuttle wasn’t programmed to see what was coming and honk) and probably could have backed up to alert/avoid the accident.

Also makes a good point that autonomous vehicles don’t yet have the kind of common sense avoidance measures programmed into them that a human driver would have when it encounters a human driver that’s doing something stupid.

That's why the focus will be on completely eliminating the human element

I was doing a drill drive and got distracted by a smoking hot milf. Could have happened to anyone
