Is that real data or simulated ? Basically except for Tesla, everyone else seems to think simulation is basically what you need.Self-driving teams today are not limited by data. After 10 years Waymo sometimes just sits there at unprotected left turns. They have literally millions of left turn instances in their database.
The funny thing is - cars should be able to compute probability of collision on left turn better than us. They can compute that using the speed of oncoming vehicles, the distance and how fast the FSD car can turn.
BTW, anyone have experience how well Tesla changes lanes compared to Waymo / Cruise ? That would be a good comparison since Tesla has worked on lane change a lot.
One more thing. In San Francisco apparently Cruise takes 80% more time to complete trips than human driven cars. This would be a problem, even if they meet safety requirement.

"In testing in San Francisco, trips typically take 80% longer than they would with a regular car, according to people with knowledge of the company. Cruise did not have a comment."
Waymo has this same issue in rush hour traffic. Trips take much longer due to missed turns because of being in the wrong lane, unable to make lane changes in heavy traffic.
