There are different definitions of what is level 5. One definition is that it can do everything a human can, including receiving verbal commands from a police officer. That isn't going to happen this decade. Level 3 and 4 either of which will be awesome will happen this decade. Level 3 perhaps in a couple years, we had a poll about that not long ago. Level 4 I'm thinking 2025 is a good estimate.
The other definition of level 5 is what is intended by the manufacturer. That is what is defined by the SAE standard. By that definition level 5 has been reached already, since Elon has stated so.
"A vehicle with an ADS that, once programmed with a destination, is capable of operating the vehicle through out complete trips on public roadways, regardless of the starting and end points or intervening road, traffic, and weather conditions."
That's L5. There is no other definition.
From the definition posted there are no details to be had. In fact it explicitly says that there are no set of tests possible to determine what level a car is. If the system doesn't set any limits on what roads/conditions it can be activated (within what human is expected to do and satisfies the other requirements of L4 also), it's L5.Are there more details? Like, should the car be able to understand verbal instructions from the police?

Key difference in SAE document
Level 4: “Permits engagement only within its ODD”
Level 5: “Permits engagement of the ADS under all driver-manageable on-road conditions”
In the situation you lay out, as long as the car has a safe fallback, it still qualifies as L4/L5.
3 months maybe. 6 months definitely for sure.When do you think the Tesla Full Self Driving software will reach Level 5 autonomy?
From the SAE definition, if the limitation is the same as what is expected of a human (human not expected to drive in that severe of weather). However if the car refuses to engage even detecting a tiny bit of snow (conditions that humans would be expected to easily be able to drive) it won't be L5.Level 5 is vague to me. Let's say the weather forecast recommends people to avoid driving (snow storm or whatnot). If the ODD limits car operation in these situations, would it still be level 5?

I see. Some people interpret level 5 as "as good as the best human."
I'd like to interpret level 5 as "as good as the average human," where the average human is ok at snow, reliable in good weather conditions, etc.
