The comment above is saying the split looks like a diamond lane marker indicating an HOV/electric car lane, so the car is centering itself on the diamond. That's a completely different idea from the Reddit comment about the car centering itself between the right and left white lines. My guess is that both inputs contributed to the car "thinking" it was following a lane.

The conclusions are the exact same. The autopilot was trying to center the car between lines.

>My guess is that the autopilot mistook these lines for the diamond lane marker and steered towards them thinking it was centering itself in the lane.

It sees the white line on the left, the white line on the right and thinks its a big lane. Its trying to center the car in the lane.

Is it really odd that two people could reach the same conclusion when presented with the same video?

Of course not. But it is odd when the top rated comment directly below the video is essentially the armchair theory that was proposed.

Again, how is it odd that everyone agrees with the obvious explanation?
