"I just think we need to stop trying to merge self driving cars into a road system designed for human operators. Moreover, we should not be "beta testing" our self driving cars on roads with human operators."
Sounds like requiring exclusive access - I apologize if that was a misinterpretation.
If you have human and automated drivers in the same roads, the computers have to be able to cope with the vagaries of human drivers.
How can you then get away from '"beta testing" our self driving cars on roads with human operators' if that is their deployment environment?
