There are now hundreds of clips of driverless Waymo handling construction, road closure and thousands of clips of it handling double parked cars. Yet many people who will ignore it and say:Maya on Reddit shared some examples of Waymo handling temp stop signs and construction:
temp stop sign, downed tree:
temp stop sign, lots of cones:
construction/struck cruise:
"I don't think their approach is going to work well, as it partially relies upon HD maps. The Achilles heel of HD maps is that they go out of date almost instantly (what happens when a car double-parks? That wasn't on the map). What happens if there is construction ongoing with lane shifts since the mapping?"
