If I was driving on that stretch of highway, I'd be pretty confused by the line markings. I wouldn't crash into the barrier, but I might drift towards it a bit. The lack of a solid white line on the right side of the chevrons is dangerous and inexplicable.

That said, self-driving cars have to be able to handle poor markings like this.

There is a solid white line on the right side, it's just faded. The chevrons are quite clear, however, so it's pretty damning that the car ignores the indication that it's cruising along a not-a-lane.
