• Bikes and pedestrians do what they do now - whatever they want.

    And how is a self-driving car to "avoid" contact? Or are they fair game--- objects to sacrifice to save itself and other autonomous vehicles on the road? A child, for example, runs out into a two lane road with cars speeding along in both directions and people crowded on the walkway..

  • Sensors connected to brakes. Cars stop.

    They stop much quicker than humans operating car brakes.

    Apart from spotting the hazard earlier, they can control traction and communicate the hazard to other vehicles, preventing other injuries.
