A comment on Disrupting Uber. Parent comment

I think parent comment was suggesting that human-driven cars that behave erratically are better handled by opposing humans rather than software (that has not been exposed to dealing with the novel situation).

(Not that auto-driven cars don't produce less accidents when other human-driven cars behave expectedly.)

I'm imagining that driverless cars could work well on very predictable roads that are exclusively for driverless cars.

But on real roads with questionable maintenance and other unpredictable cars on it, I just can't see it happening unless there's some major change to the roads infrastructure.
