Here is a video of a customer vehicle driving on snow covered roads, now. It isn't perfect, but it is leagues better than a year ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDK3dRHxOzo He has tons of other drives in various weather/road conditions.

Improved software, and maybe one hardware refresh should be sufficient to get us all the way there for 99.99% of drives.

It appears that if it doesn't know where the lanes are, it drives in the middle of the road. If someone turned onto the street from 0:35 to 0:42 there would have been a problem.

Aside: some really old drive assist tech for snow plows on I-80 Donner pass - https://path.berkeley.edu/sites/default/files/advanced_snowp... /// https://highways.dot.gov/public-roads/janfeb-2001/safe-plowi...

I'm still waiting to see how an AI would handle Figure 5-1 from that. And no, the snow plow's solution of burying magnets in the road isn't practical (Cost of infrastructure installation for the test sites is approximately $11,000 per kilometer ($17,000 per mile), including surveying, installation, and magnets).

99.99% ? How does that statement work? I feel it needs more clarification.

99.99% means 1 in 10,000 "drives" has an accident of some sort? So 100 accidents per million people/drives?

Not sure how to compare if that is better or worse than what we have now.
