Sure, robocars are operating in Phoenix. But can they drive in aggressive driving locations like Boston, or worse, places like India, Indonesia or Bangkok?
. That is for unmanned vehicles to, very rarely, refuse to yield when they are in the right, and to control themselves so as to create a low-damage contact with minimal risk to the driver who made the challenge. It seems radical to have a car not do what it can to avoid an accident, but there is a reason to not show weakness.
The car would need to be very certain that the law is with it, and that the impact will be minor. It would brake just enough to avoid a serious impact but enough to cause a ding. It might want to know the model of car it is hitting and know what speed it is safe to hit at. Or it might do something else.While robocars should not be doing constant surveillance on the roads, they can and should remember when somebody cuts off one of their fleet.
In some places, there are laws that put a duty on drivers to avoid an accident even when they are in the right. These laws may prohibit actions such as I have described. But maybe it is the right thing to modify these laws, just a little, to make people be better on the roads.Vacant robocars are one thing, but most cars will have people in them. Most such passengers would not want their car to permit a crash while they are inside. But some might.
