I suggest he gets a bigger image.

upload higher res pictures

1. Have breaks 2. Do not drive over the speed limit, so a safe stop is possible.

Explode

>breaks

Since there is a man behind the old hag, run over the kid and woman.

It should learn to not save the thumbnail.

Be integrated as part of a municipal or state infrastructure service for taxpayers so that schedule-finicky buses and costly taxis can be displaced by a network of publicly-owned vehicles able to adjust their routes procedurally and be requested on demand.

It should intentionally run over as many people as possible to offset all the jobs it will be taking.

Elon, please go.

Fuck you, user.
Elon, please stay.
Elon, show us the way.

Also, the car would have slowed to halt if the intersection were at a yield or stop state. The pedestrians are clearly crossing in disregard of traffic regulations. Their inability to practice basic safety and self-preservation behaviors should not be passed on.

Also, roundabouts are safer and more efficient.

Unfortunatly all it takes to create such a situation is a little patch of ice. It's nearly impossible to spot until you're on it, and no amount of driving skill can help anymore when the tires don't grip. Just permanently going under 10km/h when temperature drops below 1°C isn't really an option either.
So, while not too likely, these situations will happen due to the sheer amount of possible chances for them to happen, once self-driving cars are wide-spread.

Categorizing people according to their "social value", "gender", "weight", etc to determine who gets to die is just fucked up.

Car should always try to steer into a wall if possible (car passenger should take the risk of accidents, not bystanders). If there is no wall, the car should not take any decisions and just plow straight through whatever lies ahead.

Initiate Auto Destruct Sequence and drive into the crosswalk @ 100Mph

It would drive slow enough or react fast enough to make a full stop before even reaching these people.

It's not going to happen on a regular basis, but it will happen.

Brake and slow down.

Except going slower is one of the driving instructions all drivers are supposed to follow at low temperatures, to avoid just that. And the rules are built around humans with slow reaction time. A machine would drive at the appropriate speed all the time, and would be able to stop faster than any human. No need to crash, because the automation would eliminate the situations that lead to crashing.

Black ice is nearly impossible for people to see, but for an infrared camera it's trivial to spot from afar.

You've never driven in real winter have you?
Hint: even at 20km/h you'll just slide straight ahead. Do you want your car to go 10km/h all winter long, because that's the safe speed? You'll likely get really annoyed by that after 1h of commute.

I doubt that that will be precise enough. Especially with wet roads and bad view (as is common when the probelm even arises)

this situation is exactly why every uber self driving car needs explosives under the car to pulverize (or lift off) itself before reaching the pedestrians
inb4: hightech needs low tech

>wet roads and bad view
Poor visibility doesn't affect infrared cameras...
As for wet roads, I'm sure an infrared camera can tell the difference between unfrozen water and frozen water, that's kinda the whole point of it...

Never read about that application, and didn't find anything with a quick search either though. What showed up is severe problems on ice and snow though.
It might be put to work though. The future will tell.

how could the car know how the people react and jump to the other side?!

these arent the same image
also, apply the brakes
