There is a student competition in Germany for self-driving RC cars called Carolo Cup, taking place every year since 2008:

It requires navigating a track without prior map information, including stopping at intersections, dealing with obstacles and parallel parking.

Here is a snippet from the 2016 competition: https://youtu.be/MQTc22Jetl8?t=10644

At the linked t it's fairly boring, but it gets much more interesting a few minutes later, when there are obstacles positioned on the road, and some of them moving!... Also the next team's car makes much more sometimes hilarious errors ;) while OTOH risking much higher speed :)

That's pretty cool, now we just need to convince our university to send us over to Germany :')
