But...will ROBOCARS be smart enough to not try and pull a boat through the mountain corridor, in the middle of a huge spring storm?

Can a ROBOCAR drive up roads like Lake Como or Engineer Pass or Black Bear Pass?
A guide rail will keep you safe on narrow jeep roads. Easy to install and integrate with ROBOCAR system

Not I70 but who knows the history of the I25/Sante Fe/Alameda/Kalamath intersection? Seriously, were the engineers drunk? Could be the worst I've ever encountered. And I think a lot of it is somewhat new?
No bitching about i25 in this thread dammit! Start your own!Quote:

If you drive through that mess, you have to ask yourself my question. It makes no sense.Quote:

I love this thread! The definition of "damned if you do, damned if you don't"
{Highway / intersection / interchange} is fucked! Replace it now!
Construction kicks off. This is fucked! So many delays, why are they doing it this way? I could do it better!
{Highway / intersection / interchange} is upgraded. This is still fucked! Why did they do it this way? I could have made it better!
I have to bow out of shit show for good. See you on I70.
As long as humans are still manning the wheel... your expectation of failure is spot-on. People cannot merge. They just can't figure it out. Regardless of the numbers of lanes, length of merge lanes, or any other attempt to address it.Quote:

Yep. I still got a memorable pow day at Loveland but that piece of shit tied up the highway for hours.Quote:

There's always backed up, stopped traffic there, even after this huge project they did. Fucking morons!
Heh. You are in for some entertainment, for sure. Hopefully you're either retired or have a WfH job?Quote:

However, I doubt I will use one until I'm old and senile. I trust myself combined with some crash avoidance software in the car more than a computer program. Programmers can't anticipate everything.
Another question is, will cars be programmed to save the most human life when fatalities/injuries are unavoidable? Or to save its occupants?
One of the arguments is that the economics will drive almost everyone out of the driver's seat eventually. Personal vehicles will become obsolete mainly because they are such a gigantic waste of $$.Quote:

And true. Insurance costs and regulations will cause people to switch to automated cars.
Not retired. WfH for now...but likely to change.Quote:

The ramp from EB 6 to SB 25 is not finished? Sorry, news to me.Quote:
