San Diego's I-15 has two center lanes that are walled off from other traffic. They both flow south in the morning and north in the evening. Since there are a limited number of entrances and exits to this corridor it would be pretty easy to safely make it for autonomous cars only. Also, since the autonomous cars could communicate with each other and the highway too, it shouldn't be to difficult to detect any moving object inside those barriers that wasn't shouting out it's status. > My general point is that I am not skeptical of these systems, I am > skeptical of humans.

But there may be ways to deal with that us pesky humans and still allow the auto to truly be "auto". -Cameron ... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:364557 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
