問題詳情

We need not fear Google’s self-driving car, but perhaps the self-driving car should fear us. In several years of testing, Google’s autonomous cars could certainly —16— a safe-ciriver insurance discount. They always do the right thing, like a youth who just passed a permit test and remembers all those fussy little rules merged with a computer that betrays no emotion. But these cars seem to be such sticklers for the law —17— they have had a hard time dealing with human drivers who don’t worry quite so much about these things.In Google’s latest accident report, released on Tuesday, one incident highlights that —18—: While nearing a crosswalk,the Google car slowed. The “safety driver” inside (these cars are a long way from being allowed to go about town on their own) reasonably applied the brakes as well. The pedestrian was fine, but the car was hitfrom behind by another car that couldn’t stop in time.Interestingly, a Google examination of the accident determined that —19on its own, it would have stopped closer to the crosswalk, giving the car behind it more time to stop. Would it have been enough to avoid the accident? That’s hard to say, but it —20— credibility to the notion that the roads would be a lot safer if humans were removed from the equation.But that’s still science fiction. For now, autonomous cars — or their programmers — will have to learn to dealwith angry bike messengers,peoplewhodrive too close,distracted driversandtheother obstacles of an imperfectandveryhuman world.
