This technology is a long way off, in my opinion. There are so many
tricky cases where human judgment still rules.
- snow on the road, obscuring lane markings
- wet pavement at night, glare from oncoming headlights obscuring lane
markings
- old paint markings
- extraneous paint, graffiti
- no lane markings, no fog line
- markings that don't align from one side of an intersection to another
- police directing traffic
- interpreting one-way street signs (maybe map data can help with this).
I'm sure there's much more. Great technology, but "autopilot" is easily
misinterpreted to mean autonomous. Even in aviation, "autopilot" is not
autonomous. You still need to monitor the gages, watch the air space for
other air traffic, and in particular, handle landing.

Here is the URL for the troubling video of almost another center diver
crash due to bad lane striping. This time on the left. Again into the
no man's land between the carpool exit lane to Route 85 and the 101
carpool lane. Lawrence Rhodes
