More on self-driving cars
From the Official Google Blog:
Our cars are never unmanned. We always have a trained safety driver behind the wheel who can take over as easily as one disengages cruise control. And we also have a trained software operator in the passenger seat to monitor the software. Any test begins by sending out a driver in a conventionally driven car to map the route and road conditions. By mapping features like lane markers and traffic signs, the software in the car becomes familiar with the environment and its characteristics in advance.
So the car is self-driving but it’s not driving somewhere new. The route has been planned, analysed and mapped beforehand.
Hmm…
